Interesting or nice about this vacancy
We organize half-hour story sessions at the petting zoo. There, children listen to short stories about farm animals. Reading aloud helps with children's language development. In addition, their imagination is stimulated, and they learn more about our farm animals. The children sit comfortably on the straw bales in our barn. We offer this service to individual visitors and to groups from SKSG and similar organizations.
