Team Building Activity – Farmyard Rescue Escape Room

Oh no! The barn doors are locked, and the animals are trapped. To rescue them, your students must work together to solve puzzles, crack codes, and to save the farm. This farm escape room for early years learners transforms literacy and problem‑solving practice into a fun, team‑building adventure.

Take your class on an exciting journey where they’ll complete four engaging tasks:

  • Colour by code: Sort farm vs. not‑farm items to reveal hidden pictures.
  • Odd one out: Decide which word doesn’t belong in a farm‑themed group.
  • Word unscrambles: Rearrange letters to uncover farm vocabulary.
  • Farm word search: Hunt for animal and farm words to unlock the final code.

Along the way, students will practice categorisation, vocabulary, teamwork, and critical thinking—all while having fun.
