Close your eyes and picture a farm scene! If you imagined rolling countryside and vast open fields, you’re not the only one. But what if we told you that you could also find farms in the middle of the city? This episode of LADYBUG Magazine takes young readers into the bustle of downtown and the magic of nature at the same time! Visit urban beekeepers in Chicago, splash in rain puddles, play with chickens, and dance to nursery rhymes. Find out why all of the animals get so excited at “Three O’Clock on the Farm” and try to touch the clouds with Rue on a visit to the big city.
Filled with plenty of activities, songs, poems, and stories, kids can explore places and activities both familiar and fantastical with LADYBUG Magazine!
