State Fair (part 2)

One event we went to is one of our favorites for kids.

This is sponcered by McDonald's

The kids to into the gate, and get a basket,

and then go on a scavenger hunt for things on the list.

They have to pretend that they are spending a day on a farm.

The first thing to do is get an apple for the basket.

Orion got to sit on a huge tractor

to experience what a farmer in the fields feels like.

Next, Orion had to gather the eggs

from the chicken coop

 

Orion got to pretend that he was milking a cow.

Orion got his try at a hand of lasso.

He had a very hard time with this one.

He had to try about 10 tries before he caught the bull.

 

Then Orion had to go tend to his garden

with carrots, tomatoes, bell peppers,

and hot peppers, and add them to his basket.

Orion go to feel real sheep's hair before it is woven into wool.

This was a fun visit to the farm.
