Kindergarten's First Field trip: Spokane County Fair 2007

Kindergarten's first field trip was to the Spokane County Fair. We had a great time. Here are a few pictures of our day...Enjoy!! The first thing that we did was the pedal tractor pull. The kid just loved this and they did a great job. If you could pedal the weight all the way to the top this was called a "pull out". Many of our Kindergartners got "pull outs" and got to go to the next rounds. They enjoyed the activity very much.


We then headed to see the animals. We saw horses, cows, goats, sheep, lamas, chickens and rabbits. Our favorite was the Texas Longhorn that you see in the next picture. This was the largest animal that I had ever seen. When he stood up he was taller than a man. The boys just loved it and the girls were amazed.
We then moved on the the craft booth. A pottery business here in Spokane, the Whimzical Wheel, had a ceramic bee that the students could color with Sharpie markers. They put a wiggly eye on it and made a necklace out of the craft.
Coloring the craft and having a great time.
Deaconess Medical Center, a local hospital, sponsored a prize wheel. Each child got to spin the wheel to win a prize. They won things such as backpacks, water bottles, magnet frames and lunch packs.
This a group picture with cut out pictures of two news casters on our local news. The kids just thought this was great. We had a great time but all went home very tired.
Mom, Dad, Christa, Jake and I all went back to the fair on Monday and also had a great time. Hopefully, I will be able to post more pictures later. Have a great day and thanks for taking the time to stop by and check in with us. We love you all!!!!
