Something to Limit The Imagination

So, my daughter got this toy from Grandma and Grandpa today.  It's the Fisher Price Play and Go Farm.

Now, I've been very impressed with Fisher Price so far.  Her favorite toy is the little Laugh and Learn Kitchen.  With the exception of the mandatory inclusion of the Spanish setting (instead of having an option for another language or just having that channel at one end or the other), the fact that the trash can makes no sound, and the fact that they should have put more songs on the faucet, it's fantastic.  There are plenty of songs and noises for most of the movable parts and they are appropriate for the age and for the fact that it's a kitchen.

But this Farm- you get one male farmer (uh, are we in Hugo, Minnesota?  Where are the women!?) and one cow and one sheep and one tractor.  I really like how they all fit in this little barn lunch box.

What I don't like is that only the farmer fits in the tractor.  Of course, the first thing that I wanted to do is put the sheep in the tractor....but he doesn't fit. (or she)  It was certainly something ewed not expect ( ha ha ha).

And then there's the fence- only three pieces.  It only fits one animal at a time!  But you have two animals!

FP, you really missed the mark on this one.
