Last Thursday, the pre-K classes took a trip to the pumpkin patch at a local church. Karis was so excited! Rain was in the forecast, but thankfully it only drizzled when we first got there. It was a chilly morning!
They started off doing some relay races. The poor kids were cold and half asleep.
When it was Karis' turn, she looked up and saw all the parents. She thought everyone was watching her. She sheepishly walked through the relay race as shy as can be. Silly girl!
Farmer John taught the kids about pumpkins and gourds. I was impressed at how long he kept everyone's attention.
The kids then received a bag of goodies and walked through the pumpkins to find some treasures (e.g. bubbles, pine cones, faux feathers).
Karis and her friends getting ready for story time.
Farmer John told the kids that the people unloading the truck heard a pumpkin talking, but they weren't able to figure out which one it was. He told them to rub a pumpkin to warm it up and listen to see if it talked. Karis did it to a few of the pumpkins but she didn't find the talking one.
We had a great time together experiencing her first field trip!
