Farm Books for Kids

April 9, 2021 by Anne Campbell 4 Comments

Learn about country life with farm books

Farm books for kids are great for supplementing a field trip or learning more about where our food comes from. While we don’t live on a farm, it sometimes feels like it because of all the critters we care for. We became backyard farmers to a certain extent as a result of one of our field trips a few years ago. My sons came home from an alpaca farm with three fertilized eggs, which they successfully incubated and hatched!

There are several farms near where we live, so we take advantage of field trip opportunities for hands-on learning. Of course, a great way to introduce or follow up on these field trips is to read themed farm books. Even if you can’t visit in person, reading books like The Year At Maple Hill Farm will make you feel like you’ve had a glimpse into farm life.

Check out these farm-related activities:

  • Farm Themed Unit Study
  • Farm Field Trip
  • Field Trips for Learning
  • Chicken Ways

Happy reading!
