The Klip Klop Stable features a gate on the lower blue ramp, which we included to provide another way for children to interact and engage with the product. We added this feature after our packaging photography was finalized, which is why it isn’t currently reflected on the package. We include product images with the gate on our website and in our product demo video. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
