Ant
The Ant is a simple element that the children can enjoy pretending to ride. You will need small, medium and large tyres along with 3� bolts and budget paint. There is no need for cement as you can compact the earth around the tyres to form the foundation. Ensure you have at least 1.5 metres of space around the Ant.
