Our field trip started off with a train ride around the grounds. We saw a reindeer, a pond, peacocks, and lots of other fun things. This train was just our size too.
Next was a ride on the 2 story carousel. The older students had fun riding on horses that moved up and down.
Some of the younger kids and I rode in a carriage seat that was a little more safe.
Next we walked through the maze. One stop in the maze was to decorate an old piece of farm equipment with sidewalk chalk. Everyone enjoyed drawing pictures and writing their names.
Then we walked through the tunnel.
Another stop was at this maypole game. It was a little hard for us to coordinate holding on and walking in the same direction. It was a lot of fun trying this out.
After the maze it was movie time. We learned about how pumpkins grow from seed. Then we got to hear a story about a square pumpkin.
Once the movie was over, it was finally time to pick our own pumpkins to take home.
Next we went to the sleuths to pan for special rocks.
We each got a small bag of shiny rocks to take home.
After a morning full of activities we were able to stop and have a special popcorn snack and color some scarecrow pictures. Then we grabbed our pumpkins and headed back to school for lunch and a nap. It was such a fun a special day for all of us.
