ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Why we love it
The Farm Animals Felt Play Set sparks creativity and imagination, allowing children to build their own stories and scenarios. The tactile experience of felt pieces combined with the rich language opportunities, such as learning animal names, sounds, and locations, makes this set a valuable tool for young learners. Whether it’s a simple day on the farm or an exciting adventure, this play set encourages learning in a fun, interactive environment that grows with the child’s abilities.
SKILLS IT CAN HELP WITH
Cognition
Farm sets are important for encouraging pretend or imaginative play. This type of play is essential as it promotes cognitive skills such as symbolic thinking, which is the understanding that toys or objects can represent something else, like a block becoming a water trough.
Social interaction
Engaging in pretend play and object-based play with others significantly supports social interactions among children. When engaged in these types of play, children often collaborate, negotiate roles and communicate their ideas, which promotes teamwork and social skills.
Speech sound development
Hearing a range of different sounds during play, reading and singing can play a significant role in speech and language development. Sounds like ‘baa,’ ‘oink’ and ‘neigh,’ engage children’s interest and help them connect these auditory experiences to language.

Ways to Play
Sensory Play:
Incorporate various textures by adding materials like grass, cotton-balls or soft fabric to enhance the farm play experience. For example, use green felt to create a ‘field’ and a small container of wood-chips to simulate a dirt patch, encouraging tactile exploration.
Imitative Play:
Encourage imitative play by pretending to engage in farm activities, such as feeding the animals or washing the pig with a piece of cloth. You can use small toys or even your hands to mimic these actions, prompting the child to join in and replicate the movements.
Book reading:
The animals from the farm set can serve as engaging props during book reading to enhance the storytelling experience. As they listen, children can hold or interact with the corresponding toy animals, making connections between the characters in the book and their physical counterparts.
