Play: Family Fun at The Farm at Swan's Trail

We took a day off last week to celebrate Finley's 3rd birthday at The Farm at Swan's Trail. It's a great farm to visit in the Fall. They have it all - pumpkins, pigs, kittens, fishing, slides, hay barn and hay maze for the kiddos, a huge corn maze in the shape of Washington state, baby bunnies, a pig show, a play corn bin, goats, a cow train, chickens, wagon rides, ducks... In other words, enough to keep your kids busy for a few hours or more!

The pumpkin patch was a lot of fun and kept us busy for quite a while. Grady tried to sit on every single pumpkin he passed.

Me and the birthday girl.

The pumpkins are priced by size. The smallest ones are $1 and they go up from there. We got 4 pumpkins for $11. The pumpkin above is priceless, of course.

Don't forget to stop by the pig show, too. Little bitty piggies and a big fat piggy running around. What could be cuter? Grady was mesmerized. (Mmmmmm....bacon.)

Play, Stay Away, or Just Okay
I give this outing a super duper Play. I love this farm. It has so much to see and do. The best part (for this frugal lady) is admission and parking are free! Yippee! You just pay for the different activities you're interested in. And they're open on weekdays which is an added bonus. A lot of the other pumpkin patches and farms are only open on the weekends so this is great for those of you who need a weekday outing or want to meet up with your mom's group.
