#113/365--Field Trip


What a day! Every year, our Kindergarten takes a field trip to Pennington Field--it's where the local high schools play football and soccer. The kids get to go out onto the football field and run the field. Then we go upstairs in the pressbox and from up there you can see downtown Fort Worth, Cowboys Stadium, and downtown Dallas in a panoramic view.

Also inside the stadium, there is a gymnastics gym. They set up an "obstacle course for us and the kids walk balance beams, balance on these huge wedges and other things, slide down into a huge foam pit, crawl through a set of "doughnuts," and jump down an enormous trampoline. It's a blast!


When we're done with that, we walk over to a nearby park for a picnic lunch and "recess" time on the equipment.
Tomorrow, we have Saturday School to make up for one of our Snow Days. And it's gonna be field day. Mental note: Kindergarten Program, field trip, and field day all in one week...very exhausting!

  1. Very! Hope you have a nap scheduled for tomorrow afternoon! I thought about y'all today as I wandered the zoo with a million other school field trips. Wish I was jumping into the foam pit!!!
