If ever there was a time to go visit the farm this is it!  It’s my favorite time of year to go because all the animals are having their babies.  Yesterday we went out to Springdale Farm in Spencerport and they had a baby goat so small the kids could pick it up and carry it around!  They have a number of baby goats, lambs, chicks, and even bunnies.  They put most of the animals in their petting zoo area where they can run free and you and your kids can get their hands on the animals.

We love going to the farm regularly and it’s fun to watch these little babies grow from trip to trip.  There are quite a number of opportunities for the girls to observe and learn about animals and gardening throughout the farm.  It’s nice to have a place of learning that I enjoy going to as much as the kids, especially on the cheap.  The farm itself is free, the petting zoo is $1 per person, and you can take tours of the dairy barn for $3.  So wheither you live in the area or not search out a farm experience so you can enjoy those babies while they last.
