Nick Bell, 10, of Farmington said, “My favorite part was holding the bunnies.”
It was a statement many participants agreed with.
The festival was held to encourage and reward good behavior, said teacher Darlene Nelson.
“This is a celebration of good behavior and it is fun for the staff. The festival is a positive way to kick of the new year,” Nelson said.
