- Set up a DIY pizza station where kids can create their own "animal" pizzas using various toppings.

2. Activities:
- Organize a petting zoo or hire a pony for pony rides. KindiFarm have been around since 1992 servicing locations across Sydney, Central and South Coast. For pony parties we highly recommend our friends at Adorable Pony Parties.
- Set up a craft station where kids can decorate their own farm animal masks or create farm-themed artwork, plaster painting or canvas'. These are a terrific way to keep the kids entertained and gives them a memorable keepsake to take home after the party.

- Give each child a small plush farm animal toy to take home.
- Create personalized farm animal themed goodie bags filled with treats and toys.
- Plaster painting packs of cute little farm animals are also a great alternative to the traditional "lolly bag"
- Another really cute idea is to provide a small terracotta pot and a packet of seeds as a sweet little take home gift. "Farmers: Take a pot and plant your crop. Thanks for coming!"
