Sydney and I went to Farm Animal Days, held annually by NC State. The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences sets up animal exhibits perfect for little ones Sydney's age. Sydney got to touch baby chicks, a baby goat, a horse, and a rabbit. She also saw several cows, sheep, pigs, and turkeys. I wasn't sure what her reaction would be to being able to actually touch the animals, but she was brave and touched each one she was able to! Sydney loves looking at any book with animals and looking at the animals in our backyard (even though that's pretty much limited to birds, squirrels, and an occasional lizard or frog), so this was right up her alley!

To top it all off, we ended the trip with (FREE!) ice cream! She and her friend Avery had no trouble finishing their snacks. This is definitely something we will plan to do again next year.
