Anamalz Toy Animals For Children's Farms or Dollhouse Play

With Christmas coming, a lot of readers have asked where they can find 1:12 scale farm animals for a child's farm. Anamalz a range of toys designed in Australia, may be worth searching out. Their toys have sturdy wooden bodies, heads and hoofs and flexible fabric wrapped wire legs which can be easily posed. The range works well with the Plan Toys dolls house dolls (Plan Toys also produce some animals ).

There aren't a lot of 1:12 scale animals available. If you build your farm slightly smaller, you may be able to use the Schleich range of animal figures from Germany, which are widely available in around 1:18 scale, or the Britains toy animals which are in 1:32 scale.
