Yesterday we took the kids to our electric coop’s family day festival. It was the first festival we’ve gone to this year, and the kids had a blast!
First our preschooler got to have her hair colored purple. I was worried that it might freak her out afterwards, but she loved it. Then they enjoyed their first snow cones, ever (Mommy had been wanting one, so I was psyched they had them).
After enjoying their snow cones they played some of the kiddie games. I loved that all the games were simple enough that even our 2 year old could play. And, everyone was a winner!
Monkey was shy around the clown running the wheel game at first, until he realized he could win a toy or candy bracelet.
After a few games they got to pet some animals. The baby goats were super cute! I tried to get a pic of Daddy hanging our preschooler over (head first of course) to pet a rabbit, but people kept getting in the way…. I did get this one, though:
My little guy just loved watching the ducks splash in their little tub.
He also LOVED his candy bracelet!
After our hot dog and chip lunch (everything at the festival, including lunch was free), we visited the fire truck. Our son has always loved cars and he is just getting into a fire truck stage. I was pretty excited he was going to get to sit in the truck.
(Notice I was wearing red for our troops since it was Friday…)
We went early, so we were able to leave just as it started to heat up a little.
Don’t they look tired? I was hoping they’d fall asleep on the way home, but instead they played with their balloons and little prizes. They did sleep good last night, though! And our preschooler is already asking when we can go back!
