Demonstrative Pronoun Fun: Farm Animals Worksheet for Kids
Using farm animal pictures as the context, children ages 3-5 practice choosing the right demonstrative pronoun — this, that, these, or those — based on how close or how many animals are shown. Anchoring the grammar concept in familiar, engaging farm animals makes an otherwise abstract idea about proximity and number much easier for young children to grasp.

How to use this worksheet
Look at the first farm animal picture together and ask your child whether it shows one animal or several, and whether it looks close or far away in the picture. Read the sentence aloud up to the blank space, pausing so your child can supply the missing pronoun. Have them complete the sentence by writing or circling the correct word, then read the full sentence back together to see if it makes sense. Repeat this look-decide-complete process for each remaining farm animal sentence.
Materials needed
- Pencil
- Eraser
Extension activities
- •Set up toy farm animals at different distances around the room and have your child describe each using the correct pronoun.
- •Draw a barnyard scene with some animals close together and some far apart, then write matching sentences.
- •Play a farm-themed guessing game where your child gives clues about an animal using 'this,' 'that,' 'these,' or 'those.'
- •Read a farm animal story together and pause to notice any demonstrative pronouns used in the text.
- •Sort toy or picture farm animals into groups of one and groups of several while narrating with the right pronoun.
Tips for parents and teachers
If your child confuses singular and plural forms, count the animals together out loud before choosing between 'this/that' and 'these/those.' Keep the farm theme playful by adding animal sounds or actions as your child completes each sentence, which helps hold their attention. Model the pronouns naturally throughout the day, such as pointing to toys and saying 'these are your blocks,' since everyday repetition reinforces the worksheet lesson.

These or Those Worksheet: Identifying Plural Nouns
Children ages 4-5 build on singular demonstrative pronouns by learning 'these' and 'those,' the plural forms used to describe groups of objects that are near or far. Understanding this distinction strengthens both grammar and the ability to judge distance and quantity together in a single sentence.
This or That? Worksheet for Early Learners
Children ages 3-5 practice using the demonstrative pronouns 'this' and 'that' correctly, learning that 'this' refers to something close by while 'that' refers to something farther away. This is an early grammar concept tied directly to spatial awareness, since children must judge distance before choosing the correct word.
Trace the Numbers 1-9 Worksheet for Preschoolers
Tracing the numerals 1 through 9 gives children ages 3-5 repeated, guided practice with the specific pencil strokes each number requires, building the fine motor control and muscle memory needed for independent number writing. Because tracing follows a fixed, correct path, it also reinforces accurate numeral recognition, helping children tell visually similar digits apart.
CVC Train Worksheet: Write and Build CVC Words!
This worksheet gives children ages 4-6 focused practice blending letter sounds into consonant-vowel-consonant words, using train-car pictures as clues for words like 'dog,' 'hen,' or 'cup.' Because children both write the word and can optionally build it with Lego blocks, this worksheet reinforces the same phonics skill through two different physical actions — handwriting and hands-on construction — which helps the spelling patterns stick.
Plant Parts Worksheet: Identify and Label the Parts of a Plant!
This worksheet teaches children ages 4-6 to identify and independently label the flower, stem, leaf, and roots of a plant, moving a step beyond simple matching toward recalling vocabulary from memory. Optionally adding pulses or grains to the diagram introduces a tactile, sensory layer that helps reinforce which part is which through touch as well as sight.
CVC Train Worksheet: Write CVC Words!
Writing consonant-vowel-consonant words like 'cat,' 'sun,' or 'pig' under matching pictures gives children ages 4-6 direct practice with letter-sound blending, a core phonics skill that underpins independent reading. Because each train car pairs a picture clue with a blank space, children also practice translating a spoken word they can sound out into its correctly spelled written form.
Parts of a Plant Worksheet: Identify and Label!
This activity teaches children ages 3-5 the basic parts of a plant — flower, stem, leaf, and roots — by having them label a diagram and add texture using real pulses or grains glued onto the plant shape. Combining a tactile material with each labeled part helps young children retain the vocabulary better than labeling alone, since touch and sight reinforce the same information.
My Address Worksheet: Color the State and Fill in Your Details!
This worksheet introduces children ages 3-5 to their personal address as a piece of core safety knowledge, while the map-coloring task builds early geography skills by having them physically locate and color their home state within India. Practicing house number, street, city, and PIN code also gives meaningful, motivated handwriting practice since the words are personally relevant.
