We fed the chickens a special desert of dried worms and fetched the daily eggs! We tasted PURPLE snap peas which were our favorite! We visited with the pigs, donkey, horses and ranch dog. We ended our visit with some sprinkler fun!

Back in April, the preschoolers were really interested whether or not worms could live inside or not? So we asked them a few questions and decided to bring a few inside to live! Some of the questions that were asked were,
Where do worms live?
-"Under the soil"(XL), "in the soil."(AR).
What do worms eat?
-"They drink water". (XL)
-"Worms eat healthy too!".(XL)
-"Worms eat newspaper". (WE),(WG)
