Our Day at the Zoo

Last week was the Third Grade field trip to the zoo. It was a gorgeous day and we had a blast. There were so many parents who wanted to go on the field trip my group only consisted of Megan and her friend Jordyn. They had to finish a scavenger hunt with some animal facts (the red notebooks that are in their hands) to make sure we had an educational experience as well as some fun.

Megan and Jordyn with the giraffes. Megan is sticking out her tongue like the giraffes. One of the questions on the scavenger hunt was how long is a giraffes tongue. For those who want to know it is 18-22 inches. A lot longer then Megan's! =)

Megan and some more of her friends, Bailey, Kiley, and Jordyn.

Megan and Jordyn "hanging" with the elephants!

After the girls finished the scavenger hunt we went to the sting ray exhibit. The girls got to pet the sting rays. Although it was not the crystal blue waters of Grand Cayman, it was a lot of fun. Afterward we went to play park and had some snow cones.

It was a fantastic day!

Looks fun! I love it when there are so many chaperones you only have two kids. It is easier than going with my own kids!!
