Last weekend we took the family to Anderson Farms in Erie. We had SOO much fun! You could spend the ENTIRE day here with all the activities. Our first stop was the peddle cars. Can I just say, I want one of these? They would be so much fun to drive around on the trails by our house!
Then, the girls were off the the barrel cars. They had a great time being pulled by a tractor around and around in circles...I would have gotten dizzy!
Next, it was time for the corn maze. But, Anderson Farms corn maze is not your average run of the mill corn maze...it is interactive! We chose to do the teepee maze, which is the location of the Farm Scene Investigation. You see, Farmer Brown is missing and one of the farm animals is to blame. It is your job to figure out who did, what weapons they used, and what location Farmer Brown was snatched from. Along the maze there are several checkpoints where you punch your card. We had a blast making guesses (mostly wrong) and discovering who the real culprits were.
We then headed over to see the gourd launching. The gourd launcher is pictured above and it can shoot a gourd a REALLY long ways!
The girls had such a great time at Anderson Farms, they would love to go back every weekend! If you have older kids, you have to check out the Zombie Paint Ball hunt. Each of the 20 people on the wagon are equipped with paint ball equipment. It is your job to save the wagon before the Zombies take over! My eldest daughter would love this! It is great if you would like to try doing paint ball without actually getting shot at!
Anderson Farms is open everyday from now until Halloween. Check out their website HERE to find out hours and admission prices.
