Barnyard Friends—A Visit to a Farm
On this site children can go on a field trip to a farm in an imaginary school bus. Each stop features a different farm animal or farm building. Using a worksheet they can print out, children finish the trip by drawing a picture of their favorite farm animal and writing a sentence about it.
