Our afternoon started out overcast and windy, but the skies cleared to sunshine, making it the perfect fall day to visit Kingsway Pumpkin Farm. We spent over three hours there but could easily have stayed longer. There is a lot to do!
First, can I say how very much I appreciate a business celebrating the beautiful autumn season without including any of the creepy, gory, death-glorifying yuck that comes with that fall holiday I abhor? Not once did I have to tell my little ones to “look away” for fear of some dreadful scene etching horrifying images into their minds or giving them nightmares. Thank you, Kingsway, for the truly family-friendly atmosphere!
Our group sure seemed to enjoy itself. First, we enjoyed a wagon ride to the pumpkin and gourd patches where each child tried to select just the perfect sized and shaped squash items to take home.
Then we were turned loose to try not to get lost in navigate the challenging corn maze and win some prizes,
play on all the unique playground equipment,
round up a band of gnarly outlaws,
get a workout and pump our way to victory at the wacky ducky dash,
and play in the gigantic corn box.
I can’t be the only mom who kept finding corn that had fallen out of the little ones’ shoes, pockets and underwear after we got home—can I?
There were more activities too—a petting zoo, straw tunnel, mini maze and “train” ride. What a fun day!
