To finish off our series on the preschool and kindergarten years, we’d like to share some of the field trips we’ve taken with our kids. If you aren’t a field-tripper, we hope these little chronicles will inspire you to get out there and explore your environs with your little ones! For those who can’t, and most of us have been through such seasons, do remember your Emily Dickinson: “There is no frigate like a book.” One way or another, preschoolers and kindergartners need to see the big, wide, beautiful world.
Here are some blog posts to inspire you:
Our own Cheryl blogs at Keeping in Balance, and has kept a journal of several great trips:
The State Fair and a petting zoo
A field trip at home to the world of a cell!
Sarah R. was able to go to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum–what an opportunity!
Then she took her kids to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History.
Emma Anne took her kids to the science museum to meet the dinosaurs (and sea life, and other things).
Where have you taken your children? Go on a field trip and see the world!
