Tractor Ted is a cute green tractor that lives in Tractorland and gives children a great insight into tractors and farming life through a series of books, dvd’s, clothing and more. We were exciting to receive Tractor Ted’s Activity Book 2, a special Easter edition of the series of activity books from Tractor Ted.
My first impressions of Tractor Ted’s Activity Book 2 were really good. Firstly I loved the quality of the book, a high gloss cover and thick, durable pages inside covered in brightly coloured illustrations. Also the size of the book is quite handy compared to usual children’s activity books, as it’s easy to carry around and gives younger children just a one activity per page to concentrate on. It’s aimed at Early Years children and I feel that Mister B who’s 3 and a half next month is the perfect age to carry out the activities within the book. I also feel that the activities have been well thought out and put together, giving a great variety but also being of an appropriate level for Mister B to do.
The book shows children about farming and all things related to Easter time, such as baby animals and Easter themed recipes. There are also counting activities, colours, matching, mazes, recipes, colouring in, writing skills and baby animal recognition. I am really impressed with the variety and quality of this activity book.
Mister B has loved looking through this book, taking in the information from the pictures and really having a good practice of his writing skills. Even big sister Miss M joined in beside him copying the same words on a piece of paper and guiding him through the writing. She’s also keen to try out the recipes at the back of the book, being an eager cook. I can honestly say I’d recommend this book for a 3/4 year old to get to grips with pen skills and learn about animals and farming. Of course Mister B was loving all the tractors and enjoyed picking out his favourite coloured ones.

Ducks – always make us laugh.
I love pigs – although not the smell coming from their sty sometimes!
My favourite farm animals are cows.
What is your favourite farm animal?
my little ones would love this and love lambs!
Pigs – it’s fun watching them roll in mud!
Sheep, they are so cute and fluffy !
Cows, especially the black and white Friesians.
That is the fitting blog for anybody who needs to search out out about this topic. You notice a lot its almost onerous to argue with you (not that I actually would wantâ€¦HaHa). You definitely put a brand new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Great stuff, just nice!
Goats – how I would love some goats!
Ducks, because they always sound like they are laughing at you, they have me in stitches!
“A dog looks up to you. A cat looks down on you. But a pig looks you straight in the eye.” Winston Churchill.
You ARE beautiful, but if your heart is telling you it’s time to lose the baby weight, then do it for your health, and out of respect for the body you’ve been given to use in this world. That’s where I am. And I need accountability!
My daughters favourite farm animals are chickens. She just loves going to Grandads house and helping him feed the chickens, letting them out for a runaround and then catching them again.
Lorna’s favorite are the hens she loves to feed them and they love her because she gives them great big chunks of bread. She also loves to collect the eggs, the little blue ones are her favourite.
I love horses. Which probably explains why my two kids can’t pass a field with horses in them without wanting to pat the horses!
Pigs are most definitely my favourite farm animal with cows a close second. I love how cute they are as piglets, how intelligent they are, how they look after their piglets and protect them, the fact they come in all shapes, colours and sizes.
