Inside: 50+ preschool farm activities that include books, sensory, printables, activities, and songs!
Do your preschoolers love farm animals as much as ours? Seriously, we could do farm activities all year long! I think that’s why putting together this collection of preschool farm theme activities was so much fun. There’s so much out there!
After a visit to a local farm in the fall, we plan farm theme activities with our preschoolers. There are so many fun learning activities that are associated with the farm. While planning our curriculum, I came across over 50 activities, books and songs that are perfect for the farm theme.
The activities are hands-on and involve multiple skills and can be adapted to different learning levels. They also involve all 5 senses!
