Finkley Down Farm

General 

Elliott was really good today. He did get upset briefly when it was time to leave Finkley Down Farm and I said he didn't have enough pocket money (until tomorrow) to buy something from the shop. However he didn't get too upset and calmed down quickly. 

Activities

In the morning after breakfast at Granny's we set off for Finkley Down Farm. Unfortunately due to an accident in Salisbury the traffic was very bad, but Elliott was patient and good. When we arrived we met up with Harry, Bertie, Matt and Lara Higgins. Elliott had dressed up as Anakin Skywalker and both Harry and Bertie had come as Halloween skeletons. The farm was really good and the boys saw lots of animals - goats, rabbits, horses, pigs, chameleon, snakes, chickens, etc. There was even sheep racing and they fed the goats and practiced milking cows with a dummy cow:


As well as the animals there was lots of outdoor play and trampolining, including some pedal carts to play on and some soft play indoors. There was also a wizard doing magic for Halloween which they watched for bit. And everyone had lunch there and Elliott was very good and ate his cheese sandwiches very sensibly.

After we got home we had sausage and mash with Granny for tea and then a bath. He read his school book "Ant's Pact" to Granny and watched some toy reviews on the iPad before bed time.
