Our school took a first ever field trip to Botanical Garden after learning about Insects. The children were transported by two cars. We departed from school at 9am. Here we all are...very hard to get the little ones to focus though, they were too excited to explore the plance. So Gabriel was left out in this photo... Gabriel Gabriel where are you ?...
We began with a walk from the entrance and helped our selves out at one of the shady spots near the river. While we were walking, I posed a few questions for the children to keep observing things around them. Can you spot a monkey ? Can you see a butterfly? What type of plant is this ? They had a blast with this!
A picnic mat provided a nice sit down moment for the children. We had sandwiches, children's fav drinks and fruit.
Do you want to play with me ? Let's go and catch some butterflies. I heard Ms. Estee said there are some dragonflies over there. Come on, let's go!
How many butterflies you caught ? Well...fun time has to end. It's time to go. The children helped packed the things and put in the picnic basket. They helped each other fold the mat.
This activity was a favourite for them. We truly experiencing fun time with each other and the children have chance get in touch with nature.
The day ended with a smile. We had a great day and perfect weather. We're already planning our next trip in Feb.
