Farm Field Trip

On Friday, I accompanied Spencer and his kindergarten class on a field trip to the 4-H fairgrounds for a Farm Field trip. The kids were learning about farm animals in class and every year, all the kindergarten classes get to visit farm animals for hands on learning. All the kids had a great time. I even learned a thing or two about some of the animals we saw. Here are some photos from the trip.

Here's the dairy cow. The boy talking about the cow asked the kids how much they thought the cow weighed. Spencer was the first to guess. His guess.....60lbs. Then he corrected himself and said 90lbs. Good try pal! Actually the cow weighed in at 1,600lbs and produces 8 gallons of milk per day.
