Cows: Our Friendly Farm Animals

Cows are big, gentle animals that live on farms. Every day, they spend a lot of time grazing, which means they eat grass in the meadow.

Here’s how their day usually goes:

  • Morning: Cows start their day by going out to the meadow early in the morning. They eat fresh green grass, which is very healthy for them.
  • Midday: After they have eaten, cows like to rest in the shade and enjoy the nice weather. It’s important for them to stay cool and relaxed.
  • Afternoon: Some cows might go back to grazing and eating more grass. They need to eat a lot to stay strong and healthy.
  • Evening: As the sun sets, farmers come to the meadow to milk the cows. This happens twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Why Do Farmers Milk Cows?

Farmers milk cows because they provide us with milk, which is used to make cheese, butter, and many other delicious foods! Milking is done carefully to make sure the cows are comfortable and healthy.

Fun Fact!

Did you know that a cow can eat up to 30 pounds of grass in a day? That’s like eating a whole big backpack full of food!

Cows are amazing animals that help us in many ways. Learning about them helps us appreciate where our food comes from!
