FARM ANIMALS

Hidden Villa hopes that students will learn to appreciate what we get from animals when they visit the many barns and pastures on the farm. All the farm animals at Hidden Villa are extremely friendly and gentle because lots of caring people visit them everyday. The green wooden box by each enclosure contains examples of the products we get from each animal. Many students even get the opportunity to learn to take care of the animals. Students may help the Hidden Villa farmers feed the animals or clean their pens. By helping to care for the animals, these students are learning the importance of responsibility. - Rm 16

At Hidden Villa we love the farm because we can explore the animals. We love taking care of the farm animals. Something we like to do is to milk the cows and goats. I enjoy learning where our milk comes from. It's fun milking a cow because some kids haven’t milked a cow before. Another reason we love H.V is that we get to interact with the animals. For example we like fiding each anima its favorite food. Its fun to feel them eating off our hand. We also like to give a walk to the animals because its fun to take an animal by the leash. Because chickens are soft we enjoy holding them and collecting their eggs. We love the farm animals because we can touch them. An animal we touched was the sheep. While we were touching the sheep we could feel the soft and warm wool. Another animal we touched was the goats and the baby coco was so soft. - Esteffany

	"What I really love about Hidden Villa is that all the animals are really friendly; like the goats. They might buck each other, but they're really gentle with people." - Salvador
	"The thing I love about Hidden Villa is visiting the farm animals. I love feeding the cows. At first I was scared of the cow, but then we spent time with the cow and it didn't do anything to me, so I'm not that scared of the cow anymore. I also really like feeding the goats and sheep. That chore is really challenging because they move so much!" - Jessica S.
