It’s storytime with the animals at Living History Farms!Do you know a 3, 4, or 5 year old that loves stories about farm animals and living on a farm? If so, then this 90-minute reading-based, activity-filled program will be perfect for them!
Begin by reading a book or two about the day’s featured animal and participate in an activity in Living History Farms’ Visitor Center. Then, board a tractor-drawn cart for a ride to the animal’s home at one of the farms. Meet and interact with the animal of the day, and take a look around the barnyard. After your visit, hop back on the tractor-drawn cart for a ride back to the Visitor Center.
Programs occur from 10:00am-11:30am on Wednesdays, Thursdays, or (new!)* Saturdays.
In general, the schedule will be as follows for each individual program. Please arrive on time so the program may begin on time. Meet at the Visitor Center to begin the program.
