deanna rose farmstead

When we first moved to Kansas City, everyone(and I mean everyone) told us that we just had to go to the Deanna Rose Farmssted. Well, it's now our favorite place to go and we practically go there at least once a week.

This is our favorite place. It's close by, it's free during the weekdays and there is just so much to do here. The kids(and adults), stay entertained for hours.

Every morning the big white barn gives a showing of how to milk a cow. We love this part. There are baby cows to watch and pet and we learn everything we need to know about cows and their milk. And right by this barn are huge tee pees to run and play in.

And after we walk around the tee pees and watch the cows play, we wait patiently to feed the baby goats.

This just happens to be Chase's favorite part. He talks about it constantly and just loves feeding the little kids baby bottles. They are pretty cute and surprisingly gentle with the little kids.

We also love to feed the big goats too!!

And when we are done feeding and watching all the farm animals we go and play. This farm has loads of tractor bikes that the boys just love to sit and play on.

Looks like someone is just a little bit too small still...

Then we stroll by the duck and fishing pond to go play on the playgrounds and giant slides. This farm has four different playgrounds throughout the farm. They make nice little breaks as we walk around the farmstead. Our favorite is the shaded park that is next to the hidden swings and water playground.

The kids love riding the fun play animals and running through the jungle gym.

But we just love walking across the bridge to the giant red slides. These slides are so fun and they are surrounded by sheep, bunnies, pigs, goats and turkeys. The kids run up and down the stairs just waiting to go down the two big slides and they stop and stare and just watch all the animals around them. It's a wonderful place to just stop and play for sure.

We also just love walking through the gardens and admiring all of the different and beautiful flowers. We stop to watch and feed the fish and turtles. We look for all of the prairie dogs running and hiding, and wait patiently for butterflies to land on our favorite flowers. 

The coolest part of this farm is tucked away within the many gardens. They have a bobcat and peacocks to watch, and eagles, hawks and owls perched on top of their tree branches. They have an amazing kid garden for kids to create, run and play. And even a magical wind chime garden to make beautiful sounds.

We absolutely love this farm. I am so glad we were told about it. It's become our favorite place and every visit is different and new. If you come out this way, make sure you stop by this farm!

We had so much fun that we just worn out Sabrina. She tries her hardest not to sleep so that she doesn't miss a thing. But she is just so sweet when she does finally succumb to the sweet temptation of napping.

Hope you all are doing well!! We miss you guys!
