Our Trip to the Corn Maze!



This past week we went to the Corn Maze at Froberg’s Farm in Alvin, Texas. (This is the same place that lets you pick your own tomatoes). This was all of our first time ever to a corn maze. 



What we liked

  • The cost. At $6 per person for hours of fun, that’s hard to beat! There is no time limit nor how many times you can actually do the maze. So for a small price you can have fun all day!
  • No crowds. We went on a Monday around lunchtime, and we were the only people on the corn field. It was a-MAZE-ing. Haha!
  • Cleanliness. There was hardly any trash out in the corn maze. Which is good because if there was, Beau would've been trying to pick it all up! Pass the sanitizer please!
  • Picnic lunch. Froberg's has this great spot under some old oak trees for a picnic. Each time we've gone we pack our lunches, which is healthy and a money saver.

What we didn't like:

  • Frobergs is in Alvin. We are in Kingwood/ Huffman. So it takes an hour to get there. Now, the drive itself is not bad (59S to 288 to HWY 6) but it is a gas buster for sure.
  • Keeping up with the kids. We had to basically chase after our kids the first time because they were so excited! And since it is a maze, we weren't comfortable with just letting them loose and hoping they would find their way out! (in a few years...) 

Daniel brought a notebook and the kids took turns drawing out maps of the maze and we would sort of play follow the leader (whoever had the 'map'). That seemed to entertain the kids.



If you're planning a trip to the corn maze, here is what I recommend you bring:

  1. Notebook/ Clipboard and a writing utensil
  2. Bug spray (the mosquitoes were horrible!)
  3. Binoculars
  4. Wagon (for the littles)
  5. Lunch/Water
