Our Wooden Play Farm Silo is a fully playable variety of the real thing. Here we must acknowledge the fact that glass marbles contained with the Silo, (9/16" Chinese Checker size), are used as the Grain for the purpose of playing with, so we must tell you we don't recommend this for ages 3 years old or younger. The glass marbles are inserted by hand into the round hole near the top on the Canope (Roof). But before doing so you must first have the flat "Slat" (a thin piece of wood, Black in color), inserted into the slot below the hole. After loading the Grain (glass marbles), the slat can be withdrawn "slowly" ORpulled outquickly. The Grain (glass marbles) will be heard "clickity clacking" all the way down thru the maze inside the Wooden Farm Silo until they exit out the spout near the bottom. This unseen, but heard sound, tickles the imagination of the young and the old alike. Youngsters will get their head right down eye level with the bottom of the spout, to look to see if they can view what's happening. This is my most intriguing piece of Play Furniture. It will mesmerize both old and young whereas they repeat the process over, and over, and over again, because they just can't see what really happens inside, but they can hear it. The Silo is Blue with a BlackRoof (Canopy). The size is approximately 2' high and 13" across the Roof section. The Canopy will hold the (60) 9/16" solid opaque colored glass marbles to use as the Grain.
This piece of Play Furniture is by far, the most played with of our entire line of Furniture. As the kids would say, <BR<BR<BR"This is the 'Funest' and 'Coolest' toy I have played with in a long time". Of course, we know that they also have along with the Barn, other pieces in the series that make it even more enjoyable. Please visit other items in the Wooden Play Farm Series department.
Note: For the Pick-Up Truck, see W-2032 individually, Or W-2005 for an entire Farm Accessory Pkg. Or specials W-2083, W2084 and W-2085.
Also, visit our Wooden Play Barn, (W-2000), which is a fully playable sized barn for young children to climb into, onto, and thru. It is built to take the abuse of an entire classroom day after day, or a nursery school, or day care center, or just plain old home, for the enjoyment of the whole family or all of the classmates. The Wooden Play Barn is Red in color with White trim and a Black roof. The Gable Roof opens up and each Roof section lays back on the next section. Once closed, the two top Gable Roof Sections do not touch each other, so if a small child's hand were there, it could not be pinched in between them. The size is approximately 2' wide, 3' long and 2' high.
