There’s always something happening on the farm with the Barnyard Busy Board™ from Battat! This interactive activity board keeps little hands busy with sensory bubbles, peek-a-boo surprises, colorful beads, barn doors, clicking tractor wheels, and shape keys that match friendly farm animals. As toddlers explore, they build fine motor skills, coordination, and problem-solving through hands-on play. Best of all, it’s kid-powered with no batteries required, and the built-in handle makes travel easy.

There really is a lot packed into one board. There are different switches, latches, gears, shapes and other pieces to move and figure out, all with a cute barnyard theme.
Really fun and colorful.
The board feels sturdy and well made, and all of the different pieces feel securely attached. There are shapes connected to the board by cords that kids can match with the corresponding holes, along with switches and other pieces that move back and forth or along different paths. I like that there are so many different types of activities built into one toy.
There are plenty of different activities for baby to explore while developing fine motor skills and learning about colors, shapes and animals. Some of the elements also require a little problem solving to figure out how they work, whether that’s moving something along a path, turning pieces inside out, seeing how gears move together, unlocking a latch or spinning a ball. It’s simple, but there is a lot for a child to discover.
I liked the variety of activities and that there are no annoying electronic sounds! The different pieces make natural clicking, spinning and moving sounds as baby plays with them, which provides some entertainment without requiring batteries, music or electronic noises. As a parent, I definitely appreciate that.
I also like that it combines shapes, colors, animals and problem solving in one toy.
