A huge indoor sandpit forms part of a new expansion to Cockfields Farm.
On the border of Oldham and Tameside, it attracts families from across Greater Manchester and beyond and its latest additions look set to pull in the crowds as the place fully reopens.
With restrictions easing this week, it means the attraction's indoor areas - including the animal barn, play area and reptile room - can open once again.
But now a giant sandpit and picnic area have been added, a new cuddle corner for small animal handling is being finished this week and a new tractor and trailer ride around the farm will be opening in two weeks.
Children also have the chance to bottle feed the baby goats, hand feed the farm animals and meet Gloria the pig, the sheep and reindeer.
Outside they can play in the outdoor beach area, explore the duck pond walk and meet the donkeys and pony, bounce on the giant jumping pillow and enjoy unlimited rides on the fairground carousel.
Manager Mark Navin said: "Since the last lockdown we have been working incredibly hard to improve the farm and offer a fantastic family day out for all weathers."
The farm shared news of its makeover on its Facebook page this weekend and attracted comments from hundreds of parents eager to pay a visit.
All activities are included in the admission price and bookings must be made online in advance.
Monday to Friday during term time is Toddlers on the Farm, costing £10 each, £2 for under ones. At weekends and during school holidays it's £11 each and again £2 for under ones.
