Living at the farm
FARM ANIMALS -LIVING AT THE FARM
Text: Life on the Farm
Life on the farm is peaceful but busy. Every morning, the farmer wakes up early to take care of the animals.
In the barn, the cows wait to be milked. The chickens run around the yard, clucking loudly. They lay eggs that the farmer collects each day.
In the pigsty, the pigs enjoy rolling in the mud to keep cool. The horses stay in the stable and wait for their morning run across the field.
Sometimes, the farmer also takes care of sheep and goats, which graze in the pasture. The rooster crows loudly at sunrise, waking everyone up.
Farm life teaches people about responsibility and respect for nature. Every animal has its own role, and the farmer works hard to keep the farm running smoothly.
