After a long week of working, a perfect weekend getaway with your kids sounds like heaven. With that in mind, veer away from the malls, parks and amusement parks and enjoy the company of mother nature in the Santa Elena Fun Farm in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

Here are just a few things to enjoy in the nature-filled farm that’s #15 on TripAdvisor’s list of things to do in the Laguna Province.

The many physical activities the kids will love

With the fun farm’s large open space and the many playgrounds, obstacle courses, zipline and sandpit, your kids won’t be left bored EVER in Santa Elena Farm. Did you see the intense rope course on top of the pond?

Heaven for Animal-lovers

Animal lovers will definitely have the time of their lives in the fun farm with its menagerie of healthy rabbits, carabaos, fishes, pigs, chickens, horses, turkeys, sheeps, guinea pigs, and a whole lot more.

You can even feed the guinea pigs and rabbits with the prepared carrots beside their cages.

You can also ride the ponies, big-ass horses and carabaos for the perfect farm experience.

Your kids can also test their patience in the farm’s pond. If you’re worried about the fish, they take the captured fish back to the pond right after. You can also see the poultry roaming around the farm so don’t wonder if the bread for your picnics suddenly disappear.

For the parents

Parents can always join their kids in the farm’s many activities but if you ever need to chill after running around the obstacle courses, the farm also has tables and chairs where you can also prep your sunday picnic.
