Barnyard Friends make new friends…Alpacas!
Our Barnyard Friends LOVE alpacas! Students and their families had a great morning feeding the alpacas, learning about the farm, roasting marshmallows, making crafts and seeing the beautiful things made from yarn from the alpacas! They even had some special Halloween treats! A special thank you to Ms. Karen Rader and everyone at Pine Valley Alpacas for making learning SO MUCH FUN!
A Trip to the local farmers market for our littlest learners!
Remembering fond memories from last fall……It was the perfect Fall day for the Choices For Children families to visit Kim and Andrew’s Farm Market. Students took a “Pumpkin Walk”, learned about everything that is grown on the farm, had a very tasty snack and picked a special pumpkin to bring home! A BIG “Thank you” to everyone at Kim and Andrew’s Farm Market for sharing their farm with the kids and their families! We are looking forward to the arrival of spring, warmer weather, and the chance to enjoy the outdoors again.
