Tuesday we went with some friends to the Billings Farm in Woodstock, VT. It was A LOT of fun. The kids got to touch the animals (there was lots of hand sanitizer,) and see what it was like "in the olden days." This was all very exciting for Sophie who has been reading Little House on the Prairie. Tuesday also happened to be Back in Time Tuesday where they allow the kids to use typewriters, cook on the wood stove (well, prepare the food to be cooked on the wood stove,) do laundry and make butter.

What a fun place!! I loved going to the children's museum when I was little. I bet your kids had the time of their lives!!
that looks like so much fun!! Oh those kids must have had a great day - a very educational day for sure!
I love how sweet that cow looks. Animals are really beautiful creatures
That does sound like tons of fun. I always get nervous of cows. I was amazed to see sophie ccutting a potato with a knife, probably because i'm so awful at it myself. I like the chicken too.
What a lot of fun!
Some of Ella's favorite book are the Laura Ingalls Wilder ones.
I am so jealous. It all looks like so much fun, I want to go to all those places and do all the activities.
