Preschool Field Trip

Cayden's preschool class has been studying a pond unit, so on Friday, the class took a field trip to the McLane Nature Trail to visit all the creatures they had been studying. Thankfully, we had beautiful weather!!


The very excited kids waiting for the field trip to begin

My little explorer ready to go! The teachers made up these little books with stickers to go with them. They had pictures of all the things we may see on the trip. When the kids found the things in the books, they put a sticker on it.


First on the list....beaver teeth marks
Beaver DamSee the little turtle on the log?!
A newt (that is NOT me holding the newt!)

Cayden and his best buddy Braxton. They were so cute, they held hands for most of the field trip :)

Logger cutting marks. These marks are over 100 years old!!!
At one point, about 25 kids were climbing all over this stump! It's a wonder it didn't crumble to the ground.

What a fun time!!
