Advantages: Good for realistic farm play

Disadvantages: none really

I rarely see the suare ?rectangular straw bales in the fields these days farmers seem to prefer the bigger circular ones, However the rectangular/" square" bales are seen occasionally. The square refers to the square end face of the bales where as I always think of them as rectangular thinking of the side faces.

Britain's is a manufacturer of realistic toy/model farming equipment and sundries on a 1:32 scale. The have been making realistic farming and other vehicles for many years. They produce a pack of 6 square bales. These "square" bales measure 7 x 3.5 x 2.5.

These bales are made of yellow plastic which has combed sides to make it resemble the texture of hay/straw.

These plastic bales are good representations and are good if you wish to promote farm play or produce a static harvest farm scene.

These square bales are compatible with Britain's square balers. They will also fit on Britain's farm tractor trailers too. Your children could pretend to gather in the straw and move it on the trailers them give it to the animals for food or bedding.
Might be a good idea to have some real straw/hay to play with alongside these plastic bales.

Playing with farm toys and these bales helps children gain an understanding of the world.

These bales always evoke my memories of playing with real straw bales when I was a child . Making houses out of them , climbing on them, getting told off because I might loosen them and spread the hay everywhere .

I love playing with the children and the toy farming equipment the animals and the sundries like the hay bales.
Britains do produce the circular bales too if you prefer them .

These Britain's square plastic bales of straw are suitable for children aged 3 and over, I think they are ideal for a 4, 5-6 year old.
