Description
A farm to table unit made for toddlers: a big friendly cow, her calf and the milk truck for little hands to color, dot, trace, snip and squish.
Children feed the cow, build a cotton cow, count with fingerprints and fill the fridge, while you follow a short teacher guide and a suggested week. Ideal for daycare, preschool 2s and home.
Most pages are print and go. A grown up cuts the cards, the puzzle and the feed-me mouth, and you can laminate the mats and cards (for reusable durability). Easy prep, saves you time.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
Every page has one big picture and one simple action, so twos and threes can work with very little help.
The same farm words (cow, calf, milk, barn) come back on many pages, so children hear and say them again and again.
Black and white pages come first to save ink, and the color mats, puzzle and cards can be laminated and used again.
