Farm Animal Games

Toddlers love farm animals. They are very prevalent in books, TV and stories that they hear so having a range of natural rubber toys that they can play with outdoors is a great idea.

Farm Animal Sound Imitation: Choose a few farm animals and make their sounds together with your toddler. For example, you can make moo sounds for a cow and baa noises for a sheep. Take turns imitating the sounds and encourage your toddler to guess which animal is making the sound. This game enhances listening skills and animal recognition.

Farm Animal Sorting: Gather a variety of farm animal toys and place them in a large container. Help your toddler sort the animals based on different attributes, such as colour, size, or type of animal (e.g., cows, chickens, horses). This game promotes categorization skills, fine motor skills, and animal recognition.

Farm Animal Parade: Set up a "parade" with your toddler by lining up the farm animal toys in a row. Encourage your child to lead the parade, imitating the sounds and movements of each animal as they go along. This game fosters imagination, creativity, and gross motor skills.
