Farm animals
delight children
on East Campus
Kids' Day, a petting zoo for children
in the Lincoln Public Schools and day
care centers, was held Friday on East
Campus. The event is an annual activity
sponsored by the UNL Block and Bridle
Club.
About 700 children attended the
event in the Livestock Judging Pavilion
to pet various farm animals.
"Most kids don't get to see what
farm animals look like," said Jack Dye,
member of the Block and Bridle Club.
"That's why we are having this. This
way they can see what farm animals
look like."
Melissa Hynes, also a Block and
Bridle Club member, said there were
relatively few problems with either the
animals or the children.
"Most of the children liked them,"
she said. "We did have a little trouble
with the donkey. He was kicking, but
we took him out. He didn't hurt any of
the children."
Hynes said the animals they display
for Kids' Day have worked around peo
ple, so they are tame. As for questions
asked by the children, Hynes had one
favorite.
"One little girl asked if the tag in the
lamb's ear was a barrette," she said.
The children got to see and pet a
variety of animals. There was a mule, a
Clydesdale horse, sheep, baby pigs and
chickens.
Forty members of the Block and
Bridle Club helped make sure the child
ren and animals got along well.
"They came in at various times to
make sure the kids didn't get too friend
ly with the animals," Dye said.
When it came to the children, most
were impressed with the very small or
very large animals. The squeals of the
baby pigs made quite an impression on
many.
