aking their first steps on virtual soil, children now learn about the joy and importance of agriculture with Farming Simulator Kids. Sheltered, wholesome, and adorable – that’s what publisher and developer GIANTS Software offers budding little farmers on Nintendo Switch, iPhone, iPad, and Android™ devices. Providing a safe game to play, the game supports parental controls, relies on visual presentation, and cute aesthetics.

Like a Children’s Book About Farming
Farming Simulator Kids invites young players to live a cozy farm life and enjoy a variety of activities around nature and its produce: Planting and harvesting nutritious crops, taking care of loveable animals, producing and trading countless products like strawberry milk, and more.

With the visual charm of a hand-drawn children's book, kids are motivated to make their own connections between their discoveries: After learning how plants grow by following simple steps in the field, they get a sense of the value of using crops to make products and trade.

"While the Farming Simulator series is and will remain family-friendly, Farming Simulator Kids is specifically designed for the youngest farmers," comments Thomas Frey, Creative Director at GIANTS Software. "It is important for us, as well as for parents, to provide a safe and creative virtual environment where children can play and learn independently.”

Joyfully Exploring Farm-Locations
All this becomes even more fascinating when they get to drive a tractor and put their little colorful avatar behind the wheel of a John Deere machine. The renowned manufacturer was involved in the development from the very beginning. Represented by a number of its iconic machines in a striking green with yellow accents, children may already recognize them from the real fields near their homes.

Several environments are available to explore from the start: The farming house with multiple rooms, the farmland rich with crops, a spacey barn full of animals, and the farmer’s market where little farmers swap and collect items. More are planned for the near future.
