Yesterday late afternoon and evening, Heather's preschoool held a Fall Festival. Wes was coaching soccer and Wayne is too cool for preschool, so he stayed with Joanie.
There was face painting and sack races.
Apple printing and sand art.
Another cider press. This one belongs to Linda and Evan Perron. Linda works at the preschool now. Also, a tractor hayride.
A petting zoo. I fell in love with the baby goats. They were so cute and mischievous.
Last but not least, the was scarecrow making. The finished scarecrows will be displayed outside the school
There was also plenty of fall food. During class earlier, the kids had prepared pumpkin cookies, pumpkin pudding, and squash soup. The kitchen staff had also made chicken sandwiches to make a rounded meal.
At the end of the night, every family got to take home a book and a pumpkin.
I love goats, too. We have though about making getting a couple at some point down the road... :)
ReplyDeleteI can't say how much this would NOT happen in France.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! So great. (So much work for the staff!)
What a great festival! I especially liked the hay ride and the scarecrow making.
ReplyDeleteYour kids are so lucky to have such creative, hands on experiences at school! Heather's goat seems to calm, and almost looks like a stuffed animal. It must've liked being held by her! Glad Cole had fun, too! Would love to see the finished scarecrows!
ReplyDeleteScarecrow making- so cool!!! Love the pictures, Darlene. Heather just looks so big, I can't believe she's almost 5! Must be strange to have a few hours to yourself a week- first time in 10 or so years!
