On Mother’s Day morning in Hudson, Florida, WaffleFamily Farm transforms into a low-stress workshop where kids make a handmade gift and meet friendly farm animals. The Mother’s Day Kids Workshop 🌸 is a ninety-minute, small-group experience designed for children ages 3–16 to paint a clay pot, plant a flowering plug, and spend hands-on time with goats, rabbits, and chickens. The farm sits near coastal pine flatwoods and live oaks, offering a straightforward outdoor setting that’s characteristically Florida — saw palmetto clumps, sandy soil, and a breeze that carries Gulf salt.

Begin with a thirty-minute check-in for parking and short animal introductions; the itinerary moves from supervised petting to a guided pot-decorating session using farm-safe paints, then to planting. Facilitators help kids personalize pots and create a planted gift parents can take home. The small-group cap of twenty children keeps the vibe relaxed and safe; adults must accompany children, which keeps family moments present and shared.

What makes this workshop special is the combination of craft, horticulture, and animal contact in a structured, family-friendly package. WaffleFamily Farm emphasizes tactile learning — kids get soil under their nails, carry a living gift, and practice gentle animal handling. That blend is ideally suited to young urban visitors or local families who want simple, memorable action rather than passive observation. The farm’s animals are a core feature: calm goats, soft rabbits, and curious hens create predictable interactions that suit beginners.

Practical details: the session lasts about 90 minutes, so expect an hour and a half from arrival to wrap. Bring a sun hat and shoes you don’t mind getting dirty; the farm surface is a mix of compacted earth and straw. The organizers provide materials and flower plugs, and there may be additional free farm time afterward depending on schedule. Tickets are refundable up to 72 hours before the event; last-minute cancellations are nonrefundable because of prep.

Families choosing this workshop get more than a craft — they get a platform for conversation, photos, and a small living memento that outlives candy or cards. It’s a practical, hands-on way to mark Mother’s Day that connects kids to seasonal planting cycles and animal care. For those visiting Hudson, the workshop offers a calm, locally rooted activity within easy reach of Gulf beaches and waterfront parks, and it’s a strong pick for visitors seeking family-centered outdoor time with an educational twist.

Check-in asks families to arrive thirty minutes early to settle in and meet animals; children must remain with a guardian. Minimum age is three; maximum is sixteen per listing, and groups cap at twenty. The host requires a signed waiver at purchase. This gentle farm workshop is ideal for first-time animal encounters and early gardeners.
