AgriKids AgriKids - a farm safety educational platform for children. Books, Apps and School visits! AgriKids is for children who love all things agricultural!

My granny Kennedy always said ‘where there’s muck there’s luck!’ (Alma Jordan, Founder AgriKids)

I am a farmer's wife, mammy, daughter, sister, niece and cousin - farmers are all around me and I know how wonderful farm & country life can be. That's why I'm all for promoting and shouting about the wonderful things to see and do on the farm and in the countryside. But I also want share tips and ad

vice about staying safe and knowing when to play and when to stay away!

2014 was the worst year on record for farm safety in Ireland. Lets work together to help keep our farmers and families safe. When you are out and about take care and be on the look-out for danger;
• Machinery
• Animals
• Slurry pits and water
• Poisonous substances

AgriKids is for children who love all things agricultural! We want children to be able to explore and enjoy all the wonderful things about rural life in a safe and rewarding way. We use entertaining stories and engaging illustrations to create awareness of the hazards that exist on farms and in the countryside. My series of chidren's stories, 'Tales from Riverside Farm' are available online at www.agrikids.ie and in all good bookshops. If you bookshop hasn't got it tell them where to find us!

What a weekend we had alongside the amazing team at the Belgooly Show. We were beyond honoured to receive a donation from the committee in support of our work in our grass root communities. Thank you for your kindness and for keeping Maura and Geraldine fed and watered, what a kick off to our show season! Like we always, say, 'it takes a village'!

Tractor Safety Week

As part of our tractor safety education, we cover off the 'Tractor Checklist'.
We focus on improving visibility; what the tractor needs to go; to stop and how to prevent driver slips and falls!
This helps inform children of how doing a simple checklist can highlight a small issue early to prevent a bigger problem later on! Clean windows; mud free steps; mirrors in tact and keeping the cab floor litter free!
