So in April I got to go on a few field trips with my kids. Thanks to my generous neighbor who watched my youngest and my husband for working the really late shift on the end of the month so he could take care of the two younger kids.
The first field trip was to a bird preserve with my oldest. She had fun using binoculars, seeing tadpoles and learning about the habitats of the animals. They got to see Blue Herons nesting using binoculars. They also got to see a garter snake and learned about a few other animals.
Here she is on the bus with one of her friends.

The amazing view
Using the binoculars and talking to friends
Learning about animals and the foot prints they leave behind.
The next field trip was with my son and his preschool class. They got to go to a local farm and hold a baby goat and bunny. They also got to see a few other animals. He loved holding the goat the most.
He is fascinated by the bunny. I think he was afraid to hold the bunny too tight.
The last field trip was to see Red Butte Gardens and the Natural History Museum. It was also with my oldest. She had fun trying the herbs, seeing the flowers, and feeding the ducks at Red Butte. Then it was fun to eat lunch with her. I don't get that opportunity much while she is in school. I hate that school days are so long so going on field trips is great because I get to spend some extra time with her. Then we explored the Natural History Museum. It was fun. The kids enjoyed seeing the different interactive stations. They also were desperate to go check out the chocolate and how it is made.
This was our little group of girls
