Summary: This toy book helps children learn about the different animals on farms, the noises they make and the way they feel. Kids will enjoy this because they can scratch a pigs belly, pet a horses’ long hair, and pet a soft, plush sheep.
Extension Activities:
*Let the children draw pictures of their favorite farm animal. Supply them with construction paper, different materials like cotton balls, cloth, foam, and yarn, glue, crayons, and markers. After the kids have drawn their animals, have them pick a material they think their animal would feel like. Have them place it somewhere on their animal and then hang them up in the classroom.
