They make an actual fiberglass cow that can be milked. We use them in
Children's Museums all the time. They cost about $6,000.00
You can see one on my web page.
Follow the threads to museums, then select the IMAGINE Children's Museum.
keep selecting the next picture until you get to the farm exhibit and you
can see the cow inside the barn. Just load it with fake milk and grab an
udders and have an udderly good time.
