Yesterday, we went to the opening day of the Utah State fair! They had an opening day special, only $2 to get in... so we had to go. It was so fun! They had lots of shows, animals, exhibits and a 57 foot slide. Being 2 years old, Benjamin's favorite things are slides, so we took him on it and he laughed with joy the whole way down. I filmed it, the video is at the bottom of this post. And following are pictures of most everything we did.
Ready for the Fair!
The Alligator show. It was really cool, but Benjamin was really scared and did not want to look.
At the wildlife exhibit. Doesn't Benjamin make a cute goat?!
Daddy, makes a cute goat too!
Chickens and Ducks! These and the pigs were Benjamin's favorite animals.
They had this great farm exhibit for kids. It took them through all the processes of how we get our food. He had to "feed the cow," then milk the cow. Then "pick an apple," then "plant a seed," then pick his carrot that he "grew."
Then he "drove a tractor," (tricycles that said John Deer on them), then he grabbed an egg from the chicken coop, then sold his goods a the farmers market then got "paid" a dollar. Then used his dollar to buy cereal at the grocery store. It was actually really cool and Benjamin loved putting things in his basket.
The Shark encounter! (A dude swimming in a giant aquarium with sharks) it was actually really cool.
Waiting for the Bear show to start.
Bear photo opp. The Bear show was really neat! And these are the bears that were used to
create the Disney characters for the movie Brother Bear.
One tired little King by the time we got home.
