In reply to A Mum Track Mind (@amumtrackmind). Fairs are huge in the states in the fall. And yes, they're tons of fun for everyone! :-)

I don’t think we have many country fairs in the UK other than in the Summer time but they are a fun day out when they do roll round. I think they are fun for boys too though! Thanks for sharing on #fortheloveofBLOG

so true re encouraging girls to take an interest in STEM. I work in tech and it is such a male dominated industry. I have a son and he loves fairs like the one you describe. we often have country fairs and agricultural shows during the summer and it is a lot of fun #KCACOLS

My two girls are still preschoolers but they really enjoy the fair. I try very hard to get them to understand where food comes from. We had duck the other night and Pinky asked ‘what? Quack quack duck, mummy?’ YEP! She still ate it! I also hope when asked where milk comes from they don’t answer ‘The shop’.

In reply to Suburban Mum. I had the joy of spending a few months in England many years ago, and your farms dotting your countryside are BEAUTIFUL. And yes, we believe very strongly on our homestead that children need to understand that animals provide food for us and we need to care for them responsibly. Thanks for stopping in, and I absolutely will be back with #KCACOLS!

What a lovely post and great photos! We don’t have fairs like this in the UK but we do have farms. I think it’s very important for children to see how animals are cared for and what hard work and dedication it takes!

Thank you for linking up to #KCACOLS and I hope to see you back again on Sunday x

Looks great and fun for kids! We don’t have these in England exactly but plenty of farms where they can learn such things. Something to look out for if we holiday in the States! #KCACOLS
