Learning about farms is one of the most common preschool themes for young children. Which is why I wanted to share a simple farm unit study that you can share with your early learners too!
Farms are great learning themes for spring or fall, since fall is for harvesting and spring is when most baby farm animals are born. The farm activities for kids, farms for kids videos, and farm printables below are awesome for helping kids learn about this important part of our society.
If you love this farm unit study, don’t miss our animal homes unit study or our hibernation unit study! Both of these are also great for putting together your autumn learning plans!
