We took an evening this weekend and went to a nearby farm. It was a lot of fun. It's a historic farm with lots of animals, old buildings to explore (many have been restored now) and various treasures to find hidden in the corners. We did have to watch out for a few angry geese, but all the other animals were friendly and well behaved.
G's favorite parts of the trip were climbing on the antique tractors they have stationed around the barns and twiddling with knobs (which happily do nothing these days) and cockadoodle-dooing back and forth with a rooster in a nearby tree. G let out a cockadoodle and then listened for the rooster to answer. If there was silence, he turned to me to ask "Rooster do it again Mama? Cockadoodle-doo again?"
L's favorite highlights were the loud noises of the sheep with small lambs as they called to eachother and sticking her nose right next to the rabbit hutches so she could announce if the rabbit in that house was a "biiig" rabbit or a "smaaaaaall" rabbit.
My favorite parts were the kids' enthusiasm as they ran all over excitedly and seeing a bit of sunshine.
