Pequeño's Pumpkin Patch Field Trip

Pequeño's preschool class went to a pumpkin patch which was new to us. Since his school doesn't provide the transportation, Cuatro and I were able to go on the trip as well. 
It started with a hay ride around their Christmas trees, honey bees, and various gourd locations. Pequeño really liked it and was really interested in all of the information that the tractor driver stopped to tell us about each of the different things before taking the kids to pick their pumpkins. 



 

Finding his pumpkin:
He also liked looking for the baby pumpkins and ask if we could take this picture: 
After he found his pumpkin, he helped find one for Cuatro (it was included in my admission). For him, he picked a cute little green one.

One of the moms offered to take our picture but Pequeño decided that he didn't want his picture taken.
The kids were all having fun pretending to be the different animals in the large cutout while the parents put the pumpkins in their cars.
Then they got to feed some farm animals. Pequeño only wanted to feed the sheep. 
There were also pigs that the kids were able to watch but they were warned not to try to feed them or reach in to touch them. 




Then they got a chance to play in a big corn box (instead of a sandbox). I think that may have been his favorite part! 

Last, they listened to one of the farmers teach them about different kinds of pumpkins, gourds, and corn. 

We left then when it was starting to drizzle but many stayed and did a corn maze.
