“My class has really enjoyed working with the Farming Kit. One of my students, Sophie, lives on a farm so it was great to see her share her knowledge, and have it validated. Three students have started to create farms at home using their Lego. It is good to learning about farming as it created discussions about milking and those who have had helped on a farm bringing cows in. Many, many thanks for creating such an amazing kit. My class loved to create their own farms on Minecraft Education Edition.”
