Goats and Lamoids: Exploring Animal Science Bundles

Build a strong foundation in goat and lamoid science through hands-on lessons that connect breeds, anatomy, and nutrition.

The Goats, Alpacas & Llamas: Exploring Animal Science Bundle introduces learners ages 9–13 to the world of small ruminants and fiber-producing animals and their role in agriculture. Designed around the Explore → Apply → Connect framework, this bundle helps kids build understanding step by step—first discovering the history, terminology, and breeds of goats, alpacas, and llamas, then their purpose, external anatomy, and nutrition, and finally how they connect to our food and fiber systems through production and care.

Through guided lessons, colorful flashcards, and printable activities, learners explore the similarities and differences between goats and lamoids, how their diets and digestive systems function, and how their unique traits make them valuable for both food and fiber. Each activity encourages observation, reasoning, and hands-on discovery—perfect for home learning, 4-H projects, or agriculture classrooms. Great for Skillathon prep!
