Children of the Corn(maze)






We had big plans to go to a corn maze today! Got up and it looked like rain but wasn't raining. Good so far. As we got ready to head out the bottom dropped. So we looked at the hour by hour forcast and found a window of only 10-20% chance of rain at 12 pm. We were taking my youngest M and her friend. As we drove to the maze it was sprinkling but not bad. We arrived, parked, paid our $24 and ventured into the maze. It was shaped like a rooster with a bridge in the middle. They said it should take between 30 and 45 minutes to complete. The girls were very excited and took turns deciding if we were to go left or right of the paths. We found corn (duh!), slugs, lots of mud puddles, the bridge (3 times!) and the exit after only 1 hour and 15 minutes! It was fun and the rain held off until we were going back to the car. Thanks so much!!! After we got out of the maze there was a silo filled with corn kernels for the kids to play in. That really was fun! They had a ball making corn angels, singing goofy songs while inserting the word corn and generally wallowing around in kernels (think ball pit except with corn). So we had a great Saturday adventure then went to a local drug store with a lunch counter and had a yummy lunch!
