Carter went on his first field trip to the pumpkin patch today with kindergarten. This is the pumpkin patch at our church, so he's been here before, but this time he got to have a science, social studies and math lesson, along with craft time, story time, and a fun hayride with friends! I was able to join them for most of the morning (Cole, too... he slept on my chest the entire time!), and I just loved seeing Carter in a classroom environment.
Science lesson.
Will a pumpkin float? Why or why not? What else floats?

Carter found the word "play"

During the math lesson, the kids got to pair up and weigh pumpkins on a scale!
All the kids had a great day. Carter said his favorite part was "riding
on the school bus! ....well actually, all of it!" He was very excited to
ride on a real school bus for the first time, though! I enjoyed
getting to know some of the kids in his class that he's always talking
about. :) Thanks to my Mom for staying with Ella so I could go and enjoy! Fun day!!
Looks like great fun for the entire class. So good you were able to attend. And I am certain Nana was happy to have unsupervised play with Ella. You are making the three children thing look a loter easier than it is for John Roger!
