PreSchool Field Trip

Tyler liked reaching for the apples!

Twisting an apple off the branch

Taking time out from picking to enjoy a fresh picked apple

Today Tyler's PreSchool took their first field trip. They went to Lynd's Fruit Farm in Pataskala to learn about apples. They learned how the tree grows, how ladybugs help the trees, and how apples grow on the trees. The guide ask the children what animal could eat an apple right off of the tree. Tyler was the first and only child to have an answer. He said a hippopotamus.... not sure why that animal came to his head. It was not the correct answer, but they praised him anyway.
They were also given a bag to pick apples to take home. The guide told them to reach their arms up high in the air, take a hold of the apple, then twist. You should have heard all the children saying the steps while picking the apples. They all had a good time despite the cold windy day we had! ... it was 40 degrees plus very heavy winds! We were all glad to go back to school!
