Grand Finale at the Farm
Last day for Acorns & Oaks at the farm and it was time to get busy. Just like we got ready for our “first day”, the weather is now changing and we have to get ready for the coming winter.
There was warmth and smokey smells around the fire which was new and different on this cool autumn morning. Thanks to Coyote for starting up the fire! There was lots to do to keep busy and warm today!
Coyote also brought some hay out so we could feed the horses one last time. Libby, Albert, Jester and Sable each got a special bouquet of food. Which horse did you feed?
After a short hike to Pine Haven, we were ready for snack and story time. The story today was called “The Busy Little Squirrel” by Nancy Tafuri. What kind of food was the squirrel busy collecting? What kind of food from nature were you able to collect for the squirrels at Pine Haven?
How did you keep ‘busy’ at Pine Haven today? Were you swinging? Walking? Climbing? Jumping? Collecting? Crawling? Crouching?
We climbed the stairs to explore the hayloft. It has all the food and bedding for the horses. Did you like climbing on the bales of hay and straw?
Thank you to Coyote for teaching us some new songs by the campfire! Thanks also to Cardinal and Chickadee for all your help with mentoring the Acorns & Oaks!
Good bye ducks, chickens, horses and new friends! Happy trails to you on all your adventures this winter!
