I hadn't been to Wheeler Farm since I went on a class field trip in kindergarten. I didn't remember much from that trip, other than touching baby chicks and that everything looked really old. But in my ward we were trying to come up with fun new places to go for our weekly playgroups and I heard it was free to get in, so we thought, why not? It turned out to be so much fun. The farm is huge and you would never guess you are right off of I-215. There is a wagon ride, and pony ride that cost a little, and kids can see about every farm animal you can think of.
Ethan's favorite part was feeding the ducks and geese. I should try to upload a video, but he would get a handful of duck food, throw it up in the air and it would land on his head. He couldn't get enough of it. Once a goose nipped a little at his finger--not too hard, but it scared him a little. After I explained that the goose thought his finger was food and how silly that was he found it hillarious. He still wants us to act it out to this day having us pretend to be the goose and mistakenly eating a finger instead of the food.
I think this is a place we will definintely have to visit again soon.
