Wendel's Farm

On Monday, Maddie and I tagged along with my class on their field trip to Wendel's Farm. I was so proud of Maddie, she was very well behaved and followed along with the first graders. She got to experience lots of things. She was a farmer, got to see lots of animals, rode a wagon pulled by a tractor to the pumpkin patch, ate a picnic lunch with the kiddos and got to play in a giant corn box (like a sand box, put with corn instead.)

Here she is being a vegetable farmer. She had to dig up a carrot and a potato.

Maddie even got to try to milk a cow. There are containers filled with water that have a nipple on them, but it is a good simulation of milking a real cow.

Maddie knew right away which pumpkin she wanted. She knew she wanted one that she could carry to the wagon by herself. She also helped me pick one out for Liam.

Maddie enjoyed eating lunch with three girls from my class. She liked their food better than hers, so luckily they thought it was cute to trade food with her.

The last activity of the day was Maddie's favorite...playing in the corn box!
