“They can have a go at digging up sand in small HireWays digger, toss a gumboot, try hammering a nail into wood, ride pedal tractors, roll a hay bale, or get involved in the crowd favourite - the Tug o War,” Wills said.
“There’s something for everyone to try, it’s free, and there will be plenty of prizes up for grabs.”
Wills said there would also be displays, colouring competitions, sack races, face painting, giant games, and animals to pet.
New Zealand Rural Games Trust Chair Margaret Kouvelis said the children’s events were always a favourite.
