The Story

The Melissa & Doug Latches Barn is a beautifully crafted wooden activity center that combines classic farm play with developmental benefits. Children ages 3-6 will love opening the five brass-hinged doors with working latches to discover friendly animal pictures inside, then playing with the four included flocked farm animal figures. This hands-on toy encourages fine motor skill development, color and animal recognition, and imaginative screen-free play.
