The pdf file will open in a new window for you to print and save the freebie. Print the sheets in color on cardstock or use a laminator for durability – this is especially useful if you are using them in a classroom for a farm theme or in a learning center. These are also many for summer learning, spring learning activity, and extra practice for kids who need extra enrichment.

Afterwards, I recommend reading the back to your child to reinforce farm animals vocabulary by saying, “Great job! You matched the mama pig with her baby piglet. That’s right the mama turkey goes with the baby poult.”
