Simple Farm Take-Along Toy

I had a bit of red and white wool felt leftover from the fold up kitchen set I made last week, which worked out perfectly to make this sweet travel farm set! It was an easy, quick and very frugal sewing project that gave the girls hours of imaginative play!

The animals are the free figurines that come with boxes of Red Rose Tea, and now they finally have a home. The girls loved this set so much, I couldn’t keep them away from it!
The felt play mat folds up to fit inside the barn too. I added a handle to the barn so they can carry it with them wherever they go — picnics, Grandma’s house, the garden. The poor dog kept knocking on the barn door, but no one would let him in.

The ducks and geese took several dips in the pond, the rabbit loved eating all that tasty grass….
…. and when it was time to go, we packed everything back up into the barn!

Watching the girls play with this farm set made me think of all my new farmer friends from the Stonyfield Barnstorming Tour. I miss being out on the farms!
