Every self respecting small world farm needs straw, and our Small World Straw Bales deliver in style.
This set of 24 mini bales, each 4cm long and made from real hay, is perfect for feeding farm animals, decorating barns, or piling high on a tractor trailer for a very bumpy ride.
Rustic and realistic in spades!
Whether your small world people are preparing for a barn dance or your small world animals are plotting a hay heist, these bales add a dose of realism and fun to your small world play.
Perfect for EYFS small world areas, primary classrooms, forest schools, or even an outdoor area, they slot straight into any small world scene without fuss.
These straw bales are more than just props.
Children can explore sorting, stacking, counting and role play while investigating farm life and animal care.
They encourage fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and imaginative storytelling.
Teachers and practitioners can use them to extend small world EYFS ideas, spark KS1 and KS2 creative projects, or support themed lessons about farms, habitats, and rural life.
