What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? They loved it! Sounds very cute when a 5 year old is talking about the reasons a cow has a big udder

“Wow, the discussions we have had regarding this kit! Some children didn’t know the stories so that added time in. We asked a vet to come along but unfortunately coming term 1 now. We got a little bit side tracked learning about animals and wrote why we love our favourite animal for the local A and P show. It is amazing how much my students know amount animal illnesses. I feel I haven’t done the kit enough justice yet so am continuing it next term.”
