Kinderboerderij 't Molentje

The kinderboerderij Molentje is one of the oldest kids' farm in the Netherlands, operating since 1951. Kids can touch and pad free-walking goats while seeing other animals like donkeys, lama, cows, chickens, peacocks and rabbits etc. 

The farm is next to the Gronendaal speeltuin.
We were at the farm on a Saturday and an 11 year-old girl came to us and ask if we need any help. Turn out that she is doing voluntary work every weekend to run the farm, helping to clean the stalls, feeding animals, talking to visitors, etc. Such a lovely idea for animal loving kids.

There is a family run little pony-riding stall right outside of the parking lot. Kids can have a round of pony ride for 1 Eur. Aways a hit for my little one. From Haarlem Centre it is 20 minutes bike ride to get there.  


Entrance is for free.
