Baa baas are the Elves’ Village sheep and they are the mother of twins, the timid Nipsu and the lively Nöpsö which both love food. The sheep’s favourite foods are fireweed, bread, roots, and especially carrots. Sometimes these cunning sheep, which are also fond of delicacies, decide to go on a food hunt by themselves because they know where the elves keep their dried bread. After their food hunt, they quickly return to their safe paddock.
In the summer, the sheep take care of the lawn and the riverbank. In the winter, the Knitting Elf Nuttu knits wool socks and mittens using their wool.

19. Bear chair
Included in the area fee:
“The Bear-Chair stood majestically on the mossy forest floor. Sailor-Smith Elf had done some fine work. The features of the sacred animal were just like a real bear, and it was good to sink into its lap. At first, the seat felt a bit hard under her bottom, but after a while it felt as if she was sitting on a thick, soft pillow, it was so warm and comfy. The sitter felt safe, too – she was now in the lap of the bear, the king of the forest.”
On Elf in a yellow dress and The Secret of the Seita Stone book you can read more!
20. Seita stone
Included in the area fee:
You will see a large stone. A giant fir has grown on it since long ago. In the stump, all that’s left now of the fir, there’s a crow’s nest.

You have arrived at the Seita-stone.
