ocky Ridge Farm in Mansfield, Missouri is a great place to take your kids, especially if they have read the Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder. There is a museum full of interesting items telling about the years of Almanzo and Laura's life, along with a section dedicated to their daughter Rose. A tour is also available to see the house that took Almanzo 15 years to build. Laura was only 4 foot 11 and it's interesting to see her kitchen that he custom built just for her. Right beside the farmhouse and museum is a nice bookstore to visit. While there, I picked up a copy of Bible references, in Laura's handwriting, that she kept in her Bible.
