It's field trip time once again!

On Wednesday we took some kids to the petting zoo. This was a field trip that Linda organized and she plans to take all 100 kids in the enrichment program by the end of the term. Wednesday morning began with 16 eager children waiting excitedly for us to pick them up for the field trip. “Will we see lions?” one of them asked with an innocent grin. “No,” I replied, “only animals that won’t want to eat us for lunch.”

The animals we did see included goats, ponies, cows, warthogs, meerkats, monkeys, llamas, eland, ducks, an ostrich, and more. The children were all smiles—and occasionally squeals when the monkeys or ostrich took food from their hands too quickly.

There was also a large playground and the kids had never-ending fun climbing, swinging, and sliding. Despite the cold, I would definitely call the day a great success. I am already excited to take the next group in two weeks!
