THE first thing the Fryer family look for when they get to Sydney Royal Easter Show isn't the showbags or the rides, it's the big, blue pawprints.
Their favourite thing at the show is the animals, especially the pigs, and following The Sunday Telegraph Animal Walk - marked by a trail of oversized animal feet - means they don't miss any of the highlights.
Mum Cheryl Fryer, from Seven Hills in Sydney's west, accompanied by her two daughters Jasmine, 12, and Samantha, 15, and their three cousins, said: "We also love the chooks. The animals are something we love looking at every year."
Starting at the corner of Channel 9 Grand Pde and Orana Pde, the first stop for the family was the Sheep and Wool Pavilion, where showgoers are able to try their hand at sheep shearing after watching the experts' demonstration. The walk then takes them to find baby chicks hatching next door, pig patting and hands-on lessons on how to milk a cow.
Ms Fryer said the show was a great experience for younger children from the city who wouldn't usually be exposed to country animals. The Fryers don't only love the animals - Jasmine and Samantha and cousins Tylah, Hollie and Brayden Egan are pictured above trying the food.
The Animal Walk also passes through the Food Farm, where youngsters can discover the journey food makes from the farm gate to the dinner plate, and take part in an interactive cooking demonstration.
The show is home for two weeks to almost 2000 cattle, 3800 birds, 1200 horses, 800 sheep, 530 goats and 95 pigs.
