Model Milking Cow (and goat)

Our model milking cow is a very popular resource for use in school, at shows, events and exhibitions. Here are the instructions for how to construct the model which will be used over and over again and can help pupils "have a go" at milking and learn some facts about dairy cows and dairy produce. Follow up with a visit to an actual dairy farm!
Templates are available for a milking cow and a milking goat.
