Day out with the kids from Coevorden
A day out with the kids is easier when everything is close together and easy to keep an eye on.
At De Drentse Koe, everything is in one place. Indoor and outdoor play, food and drinks, seating areas, toilets and free parking nearby. This makes it a convenient day out for families from Emmen, Heerenveen or Steenwijk too.
Children can explore and choose what they feel like doing. Parents can keep an eye on them, join in or sit back and relax.
Indoor and Outdoor Play
At De Drentse Koe, you don’t have to choose between indoor and outdoor play. You can enjoy both.
Inside the play barns, children can climb, scramble, jump and explore. There are quieter areas where younger children can play at their own pace.
Outdoors, there’s plenty of space for active play in the fresh air, with a playground, pedal tractors, a sandpit, an animal area, play equipment and seasonal activities. There’s plenty of variety to keep all ages entertained throughout the day.
The play area with rocking horses is a great place for free play. Children can move around, explore and create their own games.
For younger children, this is often a pleasant place to play, as they can play at their own pace.
The pedal tractors are particularly popular with little ones and younger children. They can steer themselves, ride around and pretend they are working on the farm..
That fits perfectly with the atmosphere at De Drentse Koe: playing among the cows, right here at our family play farm with its own ice cream.
Outside, there is a large playground with play equipment, sand, plenty of space and places to climb. Children can run, slide and explore.
The outdoor playground is suitable for children of different ages. Younger children can play at their own pace, while older children have more space to let off steam.
At the animal area, children can watch the animals. They can see goats, donkeys, rabbits, a sheep and a pig. This makes the farm experience especially familiar to children.
For many children, this is a quiet moment in between all the playing.
In summer, water is always a hit. At De Drentse Koe, children can play in the water play area or splash park.
They can splash, play with the water and cool off. On warm days, feel free to bring a change of clothes.
During the season, children can explore the maize maze. They make their way through the maize and enjoy a little adventure on the farm.
The maize maze is a great fit for families who enjoy discovering something new alongside playing.
At certain times, Lisa & Loetje are there too. This makes the day out even more familiar for children.
Watch together, join in and then get back to playing. Just a normal part of the day.
Fun for young children
With young children, it’s important to have everything within easy reach. You don’t want to walk too far, keep searching for toilets or run out of things to do.
At De Drentse Koe, toddlers and preschoolers can enjoy the toddler play area, a bouncy castle for toddlers, pedal tractors, a sandpit, a play area with rocking horses and the animal area.
Parents can easily keep an eye on their children, making for a more relaxed visit.
Also Fun for Older Children
Older children often want more action. They like to decide for themselves where to go next.
At De Drentse Koe, they can burn off energy in the play barns, the playground and around the farmyard. There’s plenty of fun to keep them entertained throughout the day.
Visiting with children of different ages? That makes things easier, as everyone can find something they enjoy.
For families, friends and groups
De Drentse Koe is particularly suitable for families with children, but friends, extended families and groups are welcome too.
For a family get-together, there’s plenty of variety, with time to play, sit down and enjoy a meal together. The grounds are practical and easy to navigate for group outings. Children can enjoy themselves while the adults catch up.
