Moo’s Clues: The Recipe Rescue

Something strange happened on the farm today… our barnyard friends were getting ready for their big ice cream party, but oh no! The recipe has disappeared! All that’s left behind is a trail of scattered ingredients. Looks like someone’s been snooping around…Could it be Sprinkle, the goat who LOVES sweet treats? No one’s quite sure.

Now it’s up to you, our clever farm detectives, to solve the mystery! Visit each different location across the farm, and one of our friendly farm animals will be there to help you find the ingredients for the recipe!
Can you gather all five ingredients for the recipe and help crack the case in time for the party?

The Barnyard Friends are counting on you!
