Other Resources
There are lots of other ways you can explore the farm theme. We have a few more activities for you, as well as a list of other books, videos and activities you could explore to learn more about the farm. Remember to use AAC as you explore (and that can mean using just a white board and writing target words and phrases as you do an activity).
