Let's Talk About Water

Water is essential for plants, animals, and people. It helps plants grow and keeps us healthy.

The Role of Food

Food gives us the energy to play, learn, and grow. It comes from plants and animals.

Meet the Farmers

Farmers grow our food. They take care of plants and animals to make sure we have healthy food to eat.

Life on the Farm

Farms are places where plants are grown and animals are raised. It's like a big garden and a home for animals.

Let's Explore Water Sources

We get water from rivers, lakes, and even underground. These are called water sources.

Growing Our Food

Plants need sunlight, water, and soil to grow. Farmers take care of plants to make sure they grow well.

Our Role in Protecting Water and Food

We can help by not wasting water and by eating healthy foods. This helps protect our environment and our health.
