We had a wonderful experience hatching chicks! We had 5 chicks hatch from our small incubator. We saw most of the hatching process. The 5 fluffy chicks went to my brother's farm.
Wow! Field Day was so fun! We loved having the opportunity to travel with our small teams to stations of our choice. It’s great to build independence and be responsible for cooperating with our teammates! Thanks to all of the parents that volunteered to run a station and walk around with kids! They loved seeing you there.
