This weekend we took a ride across the river in to good old Jersey to visit Johnson's Corner Farm. Cheryl had taken Zoe there once before with the twins, but this was my first visit. It is pretty impressive and there are lots of things to do there. You do have to pay to get in to the really fun stuff, but it was well worth the price of admission. Zoe got to play her first game of tether ball.
I totally won, but that's only due to my 3 foot advantage. We then moved on to play in their massive sand box areas, that had all sorts of tools and toys to use.
Zoe loves sand. Next to that there are 4 different play stations. One is a produce market with different bins of fruits and vegetables along with a cash register. Another is a work area, with all sorts of tools. There is a kitchen area, with a grill, an oven and some processed meats. The last one is a veterinary area, with stuffed animals and all sorts of doctor equipment.
That face she's making while Cheryl is listening to the dog's heart, that the same face she makes when she's at the doctor and he listens to her heart. Inside the pay area there is also a track with some pedal tractors. I rode one and it was pretty awesome. There is also a little splash area, but it was too cold to get wet.
As part of a free visit, you can go over and see the animals. There are little candy vending machine that dispense corn and you can feed the animals through PVC tubes. Zoe really likes feeding the animals, and is always curious about what their food tastes like.
There is also a couple of large, bumpy tubes that act as slides. Zoe was hesitant at first to go down them, but once she realized what they were, she couldn't run back to the top fast enough.
Needless to say, this is a very fun place. We purchased a pass for the season and plan to get there whenever we can. Since it is only a half hour away, hopefully that will be often. You can check out the Johnson's Corner Farm album on Flickr to see all of the pictures.
