Party craft activity

Build-Your-Own Wooden Barn

Kids assemble their own small wooden barn from pre-cut pieces — a real building activity, not just decorating. A barn is the natural companion piece to the party's tractor centerpiece, and building it gives kids a different kind of hands-on task than the paint-your-own-tractor table.
