On the Farm

On the Farm takes infants on a visual journey through the sights and sounds of life on the farm, showcasing adorable barnyard animals through clean black and white illustrations and shimmering red foil accents. Perfect for stimulating babies' eyesight, each spread introduces a familiar farm animal accompanied by its name, making it ideal for first-word learning. The carefully structured layout encourages visual focus and strengthens associations between spoken language and imagery. Infants and toddlers can begin to recognise, name, and eventually mimic animals like cows, pigs, and chickens, all while developing key literacy foundations. This tactile, durable board book is not only visually engaging but also highly effective in supporting early cognitive and language development through repeated interaction.
