Go to the Fair!

"Go to the fair...you will find that the conditions at a fair will surpass your wildest dreams." E.B. White Charlotte's Web

For most of the two days before my son's kindergarten class went to the fair he reminded me, "I am not going to school. I am not going to the fair. There will be a lot of animals there. They stink. Bad. I do not want to smell them."

Geesh. Just what every environmental educatin' nature lovin' mother wants to hear.

Well he went. And after getting to hold the flailing baby chickens that peered out inquisitively from his hands, he was, of course, totally smitten with their fluffiness.
