Spring is almost settled in, and it’s finally time to get out and explore more of our beautiful state. However, today’s destination isn’t all natural, but definitely entertains people of all ages. This amazing place in Kansas is chock full of family fun, and more than worth the travel if you’ve been waiting to check out other places in the area. Today we head to northeast Kansas and to one of my favorite family places. What are you waiting for? Let’s go!

Welcome to Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead, a beautiful family attraction that's full of hidden surprises.

Most of the farm imitates life in a turn-of-the-century style schoolhouse, farm, and blacksmith.
Of course, there's plenty of space to roam around while you're here.

Beautiful scenery is there to greet you at every corner, as long as you're not too distracted by adorable farm animals.
For an extra price on your entry ticket, you can feed baby goats a bottle of milk, or just use your quarters to feed animals.

Bottle feeding a goat is an experience most kids (or adults) won't forget. Plus, seeing the animals on an old-fashioned farm instead of the zoo is a great change of scenery.
Kids can interact with old equipment, and have fun with something non-electronic for a change.

Not that electronics are bad, but I'd love to see more kids learning how a waterspout works.
The blacksmith and one-room schoolhouse are favorites of many.

Can you imagine using slate instead of paper, or needing someone to handcraft a new part for your vehicle? The mini town inside these gates makes you wonder how life was when everything was much simpler.
This could be the best adventure you've had in a while.
