4H and the Fair

Fair Week = A week full of excitement, rushing, washing animals, waking early, and getting home late, seeing lots of animals, and fun. The kids look forward to this week every year. I look forward to the quietness of the week following the fair. It is a time of great memories and learning experiences.

This year, the children were responsible for caring for their animals without much help from Ma or Da. They did a great job, and realized there were a few things they could've done better. Each year, they learn new techniques and gain knowledge about the animals they care for.

Of course the week is donned with boots and jeans. Seems, we're missing a pair in this picture.

Noah helped Hannah show her rabbits, while she was in the horse show.

Hannah had the opportunity to show a couple rabbits herself.

Action! Thank you Walmart for bidding on all three of our children's projects.

I highly recommend 4H. There are many learning opportunities available; and many are not farm or animal related. You don't have to live in the country to participate. Many children live in neighborhoods. Our children have been involved in Robotics, Vet Sciences, Insect Studies, Rocks and Minerals, Rockets and more. Check out the opportunity 4H has to offer.
