I set up a trip for our homeschool group to go to an Alpaca farm in our area. The kids were shown what machines are used to prepare the wool from the Alpacas.
She showed them some types of yarn and felt that have been made.
The kids were shown things that are made with the wool. Here are some felted items that were made by hand. If you want a good blog that features alot of home-made felting projects a good one to visit is The Magic Onions. She also sells felted toys and other items.
These are the boys. They are kept on their own.
The kids got to go into the barn with the animals and outside with them. The animals seemed so friendly and many of them were timid.
