McKenzie's preschool class is on their transportation unit, so far they have been talking about feet and walking and cars, so today, we took a field trip to the Pumpkin Farm so they could look for stop signs and stop lights and talk about things they have learned about driving, and then they could use their feet for walking to go pick out a pumpkin that they get to paint in a week or so.
Anyway, they loved it. Someone read them a story about pumpkins, and then they got to go wander and pick out their very own pumpkin, and then they have a little hay maze that the kids could go play in.
They had a ball because it was only 3 bales of hay high, so it was high enough that it was fun for the kids, but low enough that us parents could see their heads from the outside, so we could keep track of them and help them find their way out when they got stuck.
This will be a fun filled month for field trips with trips to West Bountiful Airport, Hill Air Force Museum, a trip to Arctic Circle via UTA bus (it is just down the street), a bike/trike parade, and Pony Haven is coming, so the kids get to have pony rides on Shetland ponies if they would like....Stay tuned for pictures....
