Children thrive at Little Moo Moos.
Outdoor Play Facilities
Outdoor play is essential to early childhood development. Children learn social skills by interacting with other children, with adults, and even with objects and natural materials found in the environment.
The Secret Garden
The Secret Garden is a favourite with all the children. They follow the path –and through the gate– where they come upon a little nook, with a giant tractor tyre overhung by the ‘tree of life’, with all sorts of wonderful discoveries to be made, like little “hairy Molly” caterpillars! The children plant all sorts of seeds and plants in the vegetable garden, from huge, feathery fennel that smells like liquorice and tastes sweet – to big, orange pumpkins for Hallowe’en.

The Playground
The playground is a marvellous place indeed. With a big, high tree house right in the middle, a racetrack for all sorts of trikers and bikers, sand pits with diggers, swings & slides, stepping stones and balancing poles, hard surfaces, soft surfaces, grass, stones… and of course, the football pitch!

The Hay Barn
Well, every farm has a hay barn! Ours provides an amazing indoor space with plentiful of room for a whole class to develop their gross motor development skills! The large windows are low and the children enjoy looking out into the fields at the munching cows plodding around. “Hey, is that grumpy goose chasing Farmer Rory again?!”

The Byre
We are very proud of our most recent addition –The Byre and Look-out Tower– a fantastic place which everybody adores. It is a specially designed, purpose-built, safe environment. We put on our wellies and venture across the yard, out to The Byre. There, we can see Daisy being milked – up close, right beside her. There are little beds where the newly-born calves are being cared for – and we can feed them. Animals, as we know, have a wonderful, therapeutic effect on children.

The Look-out Tower
As you walk up the stairs from the Byre, there is a great surprise –ta-dah!– the specially designed viewing gallery, with a 360 degree view of the farm, from the elds and yard, into the shed where all the cows sleep, and the other shed where the tractor comes and goes with giant bales of hay, to the next shed where the bales are “scattered like an exploding jack-in-the-box”… and nally into the last shed, where the birthing cows lie – or sometimes the big, huge bull takes up residence.
