Setting itself apart from countless plastic farm playsets for kids, Britains Farm in a Box unfolds from a recyclable cardboard box—and can be pieced back together again when not in use. The eco-friendly farm playset for kids creates a farmyard scene, complete with a trailer attachment, a milking station, animal pens and stables, as well as a perfectly to-scale model of a John Deere tractor, a trailer, loader, hay bales, fencing and animals.
As Claire Ridley, head of EU Brands at Tomy, observes: "we’re seeing the fun of the farmyard becoming more and more popular with a range of families." The playful farm toy offers a simple and sustainable way to support inspiring play.
