Daily Farm Chores

A boy handing a girl a basket of fresh eggs in a sunny farmyard with a cow, a goat and hens beside a red barn

Big Idea

Daily Farm Chores: Feed, water, collect eggs and check on every animal, every day.

Story time

One morning at the farmyard at morning chore time, Rosie and Owen talked about “daily farm chores.” Caring for animals teaches kids gentleness, patience and responsibility. Rosie said, “Let's try it today!” Owen smiled and said, “Let's do it together.” By the end of the day, they both felt proud of the healthy choice they made.

Try it!

With a grown-up, make a chore chart for one animal you know (a hen, a goat, a rabbit or a sheep). List its food, water and clean-home jobs, and check them off for a week. Wash your hands with soap after every chore.
