What to expect from a Farmyard Nursery Encounter
In a gated pen and shaded, safe and controlled environment, children can get up close and personal with our friendly farmyard animals! We encourage children to interact, pet and get to know our diverse range of farmyard animal personalities.
Invite us along to learn why we need farm animals and where our food comes from or simply to provide a fun and interactive environment for your children at a private party or public event.
The Animals On The Move Farmyard Nursery team deliver factual and entertaining unscripted information that allows their natural animal loving personalities to shine through. Animal facts which outline the key characteristics of each animal and the valuable products we get from them, as well as care information about what each animal needs to stay happy and healthy is entwined with amusing stories and anecdotes.
What age group best suits the Farmyard:
Preschool, Kindergarten, Child Care & Primary School Education from Foundation to Year 6. But, the information & interaction can be enjoyed by all ages.
Little kids (as well as the grownups!) love the chance to cuddle and feed their favorite animals! We offer young children the chance to finally meet the stars of their favorite books and TV shows, whilst teaching them about the animals and why we need them in our lives
Primary school children will love the opportunity to get up close and personal with all our friendly farm animals! The program fits in perfectly with the school curriculum, and can be a great teaching aid.
