Having Fun with our Farm Parties
We’ve been having an absolute blast hosting Farm Parties.
Thank You so much to Christina and Lorba for letting me snap and share some of these gorgeous photos!
We’re loving seeing the children running through the paddocks together to get to the goats.
Climbing over obstacles, up trees and vying for the goats attention with their seaweed snacks. And often eating the seaweed snacks themselves.
And their delight at finding the chicken eggs in the hutch.
It’s so lovely to see their care and attention when handling the baby chicks. And their enthusiasm and camaraderie tasting the bush tucker.
Their shoulders relax and their smiles grow as they get used to the pony’s movement, and as they start riding with “no hands”, playing the Mug Race and going for a trot.
After a few turns they’re asking to ride over the jumps, and to go even faster…
It’s hilarious seeing some of their poses on the Sulky and Pee Wee motorbike, and seeing them swing the lasso and try cracking the whip.
And the games on foot in the arena are SO MUCH FUN! The Boot Throw, Egg & Spoon Race, Sack Race and a huge game of tag are awesome to watch.
And then to see them try to outdo each other on the trampoline is pretty inspiring, sometimes breathtaking :)
We’re getting the hang of the menu, watching what disappears the quickest and making notes of what to serve more of.
I’m just having a little trouble slowing everyone down to pick the veggies from the garden for our salad, as we race back from the goats.
And now we’re working on making it easier for the Party Organiser with pre-written Invitations, a running sheet for the party, and comfortable seating for the parents Everywhere! So they can see as much of the action as possible while catching up on everyone’s news.
We’ve also noticed that the Farm Parties are loved most by boys, from the ages of 3 to 8 years. The girls want more horse riding!
The only thing we haven’t worked out how to include yet is a Birthday Cake and Lolly Bags. They’re the only things not included.
