Now that the weather is starting to stay warmer, we like to get outside as much as possible before it turns HOT!! So, late April and early May we tend to do a lot of field trips all at once.
My Mini-Me usually has speech therapy on Wednesday afternoon, however her therapists had to reschedule a couple weeks ago to Thursday morning at 8:15. I saw that as the perfect opportunity to load all the kiddos up and head to the park after speech for a quick hike in nature. The kids were instructed to find different kinds of leaves, as well as any moving creatures they could spot.
Here are a few things they pointed out (I just wasn't fast enough with my camera a couple times):
Princess #2 was hoping to find a snake or lizard, but had to settle for this toad. We also saw a turtle on a log in the lake, but he jumped in the water before I could focus the camera for a picture. The older boys spotted a rabbit in the woods off the trail, but again I wasn't fast enough with the camera. Of course, there were several birds we spotted that I just couldn't get a picture of.
Of course what kind of family trip is complete without photos of the kiddos?
This was a fun day at Mullenax Homeschool!! I have a few more fun field trips planned for these last two months of school. The kids have worked hard this year.
