I had the brilliant idea of picking up beach pails for the kiddies to use to carry their strawberries. In the past, we've gotten the bucket that the farm provides, but it's big and cumbersome and I'm always stuck carrying it. This way, the boys each get a bucket. They get to fill it, carry it, etc. Then it gets weighed. They're also deeper than the stock bucket so the strawberries don't spill as much. Of course, the boys dumped their buckets a few times, but it wasn't too bad.
We got to the fields along with the rush of people who knew the routine. Each boy got let out of the wagon one at a time to minimize strawberry trampling and to allow for some 1:1 time. Dave stayed back with the wagon so I could supervise and take pictures.

Then after we filled our buckets with strawberries, we stopped by to see the animals and get some strawberry donuts!!!
