My son and I saw this toy at a local dollhouse store, and I was very impressed with how well it is built. I loved how small it is, perfect to carry around, and won’t take up a ton of space. The price on Amazon is quite a bit less then what I have seen it for in stores. I will probably be buying this for him for christmas. I definately recommend it.

My granddaughter’s 4th birthday – she asked for a horse and a cow and a barn. I was so relieved when her mom said “toys – not real”. Found this and it turned out perfect. Everything she wanted in one product!! She loves it, carries it around and plays for hours with it. She is not a quiet child and is rough on her things but this really is great for her. Gives her hours of play at a time without becoming bored. Recommend highly.

I recently bought this toy for my grandson, who is two years old. I was afraid it would be too heavy and large for him to carry, but it is just right Overall, I am very happy with the purchase. My grandson enjoys setting up the animals in various positions and opening and closing the sliding doors. His favorite thing to do is to make a square with the fence and enclose all the animals, standing side by side. (This is quite difficult, as the fence is rather small). The barn and the animals seem sturdy but I don’t have them long enough to know for sure. My only complaint about the set is that there is no latch, so the barn can open when moved from place to place. Years ago I had a similar style barn for my children and one handle had a piece that clicked under and locked into the other handle. I think Melissa and Doug should consider doing this in their future production.

This was an unexpectedly great purchase, with wonderful detail, smooth-working parts and ample room for play and lodging of the horses and other animals! I reviewed and shopped online scrupulously for several hours, until I selected this Fold-and-Go Mini Barn (as well as the Fold-and-Go Mini Stable). I bought this and the mini stable to go with the Schleich horses and other like-sized Schleich animals we’ve gifted to a 6 year old granddaughter. The barn (as well as the stable) was a hit! I also added a section of Melissa and Doug wooden articulating fence (about 3 feet long)to go with it; though it’s supposed to be sized for the larger horses, it was also a real pleaser, working well for these animals and this barn and the stable! (She decided to paint all the wooden articulating fencing barn red, and that actually turned out very nicely; just dilute the paint — we used artists’ acrylic — so fencing still moves!)
