Corn Cob Acres

About two weekends ago we got the family together for a fall fun day. We ventured over to Corn Cob Acres in Mountville (right at Field of Screams).
They had a ton of stuff for the kiddos to do. Pumpkin painting, slides, a huge area with corn kennels for digging, a wagon ride, a bounce house, etc.
So lets Review:
Fact: The kids' age's who participated were 1.5, 1.5 and 3. The adults were: 27, 24, 20, 26, 47, and 69. I think this is important to note as not everything about the place was both toddler and grown up friendly.
Price: Not bad, not great. $12 for anyone over the age of 2. Luckily Izzy is the tiniest person ever so she passed for 2 and only the grownups had to pay. I do think that $12 to supervise your kids is a little steep but that may also be the cheapskate in me.
Face Paint: I still haven't tried this with Victoria. I am not sure that she would sit still for that and it would be a matter of seconds before she would probably wipe her hand across her face and ruin it. I am sure Izzy would have sat there if she wasn't so interested in being with her cousins.
Corn kennels for digging: Very friendly for all involved. The kids LOVED digging in it, it was sooo cute. My brother buried Tori's legs and she thought it was about the funniest thing she has ever experienced. Sam was using the tools like she does it all the time, totally normal to just dig piles and piles of corn.
Pumpkin painting: We skipped this because Tori paints pumpkins all season long at home. It is so easy to stick her in her high chair and let her paint a pumpkin and she loves it.
Wagon rides: SO CUTE. The line moved fairly quickly (thankfully) so it wasn't as difficult to stand in line with the kids as I thought it would be. They liked going in the big circle, beeping the horn and being able to see each other from their wagons.
Slides: There were slides by the haystacks and there were caution signs that said "beware the slides are really fast"... and they weren't kidding. And then there were the huge blow up slides which Izzy enjoyed and Sam just kept butting in front of everyone in line but didn't actually get to go on.
Bounce house: The lady in charge of this said the kids were supposed to go into the entrance, bounce around a little and then come out of the back/exit. Try explaining that to toddlers. Izzy was fine and she was adorable trying to wrangle up her cousins but Tori and Sam just wanted to jump and fall.
THERE WAS NO RIDE TO PUMPKIN PICKING like I thought there would be. It said pumpkin picking but they literally meant like -here is a bunch of pumpkins on a shelf so pick one out- LOL. Which we did... I need to find one next year where you physically go to a pumpkin patch and pick off a pumpkin you want. That is so fun and cute.

Anywho, so overall on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best) I would give Corn Cob Acres a 7.
