Barnyard Readers - Oxen

Today we visited Living History Farms for the 3rd session of the Barnyard Readers Program.  The topic today was oxen!  After reading a book about oxen, we took a tractor ride out to the 1850 farm to see the pair of oxen (or "the boys" as everyone on the farm likes to call them).  Jack was scared to get too close, so he had no interest in petting them.  He was happy just to watch from a distance!
