Alright, back to Father's Day weekend in June. My mom came on Friday so she'd be here early for the 5K race Saturday morning. She had requested to see some local attractions this visit, so I brainstormed and got really excited about the possibility of FINALLY going to the Arbor Day Farm! I'd been wanting to check it out ever since we moved here 2.5 years ago, but we just hadn't yet. I was blown away by all the fun things to do there, and 3 hrs was not nearly enough time! We'll have to go back with Kevin so he can see too...
First we headed on the nature trail. It's less than a mile walk around, so I knew the kids could do it. There were SO many learning things for kids-- booklets to stamp along the way, boxes to smell, footprints to observe, buttons to listen to bird sounds, tunnels to run through, etc. We didn't have time to stop at all the things, so we'll have to do all that when we go back...
This was the tree house. It was a little unimpressive but all the rest was sooo cool!
Then we got to the kids "learning classroom". So many different stations of things to do here!
Climbing...
Water play...
An outdoor xylophone...
Make-your-own-hammocks...
There were many more things to play there with art or building blocks, etc but we ran out of time because... we had to catch our tractor ride tour of the whole farm. We were all hot and tired and ready for a ride! 45 minutes long though!
What a fun adventure! Thanks, Mom, for giving us a great time to go!!
