Highlights for Thursday

Part of what I love about the fair is just the ability to learn new things. Most of my fair experience can’t be planned out and I like it that way. We never see everything but each year we repeat our favorites and find some new adventures. 

Old Fav #1: Apple Dumplings a’ la mode at the Pride of Kansas Building ... oh.my! 

Old Fav #2:  Gotta make 1 swing thru the Hedricks  petting zoo. Small cups of food are $1. I let my kids split a cup - $3 for a littl hands on activity.

Old Fav #3: The Birthing Center is full of new life. One year we even had front row seats to a calf being birthed!!! Amazing!!  Health class doesn’t get better than that!

Old Fav #4: The bungees are Norah’s all time fav and I will probably hear the question for 364 more days - when can we do the bungees again???  We hit them on a slow day and they were $5 instead of $7!! 

New adventure: The Moo U tour took us thru the animal barns where we were able to learn and ask questions about chicken, rabbits, and cows and also learn about 4-H and showmanship. Our tour guide was very friendly AND this is another way to get free ice cream at the Dairy Bar!! Whoo hoo!!
