Field Trip ---#6

This field trip was probably my favorite so far ...

it was to the

DAIRY FARM!!!

First we learned how they got the milk from cows & how they stored it.Then we got to go see the baby calves.

It was a lot of fun to watch Emma "touch" the calves. She was very timid with them & wasn't sure she wanted them to lick her hand.
Then we got to go see the Momma cows & feed them CARROTS.
Now, I thought since Emma was so timid with the baby calves she wouldn't allow the Cow's to get the carrot out of her hand ...
BOY WAS I WRONG!!!
She LOVED feeding the carrots & asked Mr. Farmer if she could come another time & feed them CARROTS if her Mom brought her!

This is both the A.M. and P.M. Pre-School classes with Mr. Farmer
He gave us such a cute tour & was very sweet with the children!

After the tour, a brother & sister from Emma's pre-school class lived near by & brought their pony over for everyone to pet.

Once everyone had pet the pony, Marriam rode her pony home.

Emma thought Marriam looked just like a "Princess" on her pony & has since asked if she could have a pony for Christmas like Marriam.

Sadly, we don't have enough land for a PONY, although it would be fun to have!

Funny Story:

Now that we have Chickens, Emma always calls Daddy, Mr. Farmer & me Farmer's Wife.

I guess we kinda are a FARMER FAMILY & we are LOVING it!!!! :)
