Tumble Down Farm - Wooden Early Learning Centre Farm

Advantages: Easy to build
Disadvantages: Easily falls apart

For my sons 3rd birthday we werent sure what to buy but on a visit to ELC we spotted the farm set and thought this would be great as he had a collection of animals but we used old cereal boxes and things to store them in.

Fun At The Farm

Advantages: Lots to see and do

The latest party was of a different sort. It was on a farm, and the farm is approximately 25 miles away from where we ...
