Children's play often mimics the activities of everyday life that they see around them. In an earlier more rural time, children would have found this sheep and shepherd set appealing. The set is realistic to the point of including one shorn sheep with its fleece separate. All the parts are packaged in a box with an illustration of sheep with their shepherd on the lid.
