Why is it important to introduce children to farm animals: education and development
In today's world, where 70% of children spend more than 4 hours a day on gadgets, getting to know wildlife is becoming a critical element of development. Communication with animals on the farm opens up new opportunities for children, contributing to their harmonious development and formation of important life skills.
Emotional intelligence and practical knowledge
Research shows that children who regularly interact with animals demonstrate 35% higher levels of emotional intelligence compared to their peers. On the farm, children have a unique opportunity to learn about the life cycle of farm animals and understand the process of obtaining natural products.
Health and development
Spending time in the fresh air and contact with the natural environment has a positive effect on the child’s immunity. Medical studies confirm that children who regularly come into contact with pets at an early age are 43% less likely to suffer from allergic diseases. In addition, 78% of teachers note an increase in children's interest in natural sciences after regular visits to the farm.
Environmental education and social skills
In an era of global environmental challenges, it is especially important to cultivate in children a conscious attitude towards nature. Group visits to the farm promote the development of communication skills, help develop a caring attitude towards the environment and an understanding of the relationships in nature.
