My LO has literally no fear so he will likely be trying to ride the goats... see, now I'm sad I'm not going... oh hormones... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624844 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:52:56 +0000 Adira 2624844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: AHHH!!! I was literally just there a few weeks ago!! They have this whole area where you can walk around and the goats and chickens are just roaming free! My kids are timid, so they stuck to the stroller most of the time we were there. This picture pretty much sums it up: </p> [attach=340/16/odv5k8.600x450.DavisFarmland.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624829 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:39:52 +0000 psw27 2624829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I can hardly handle my 1 toddler these days... hurry up first trimester! haha they are going to Davis Farmland (I think you are close to me sorta so you might know it?) so its not like I can't go there with LO again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624825 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:34:34 +0000 Adira 2624825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: Oh, I gotcha. And yes - throwing up while supervising toddlers = not fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624823 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:33:50 +0000 MenagerieMama 2624823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They start at age 16 mo in the junior toddler room. LO's class has gone strawberry picking and is going to the pumpkin patch in a couple weeks. I'm still nervous about the carseats on the bus so DH usually takes time off to go with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624816 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:28:59 +0000 psw27 2624816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I think I *could* go if I pay and transport myself, etc. But in their defense, I'm super morning sick so I was like maybe this is a sign I should just stay back.... throwing up + supervising toddlers = awkward. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624811 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:24:35 +0000 Adira 2624811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: They won't let you just go? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624808 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:18:23 +0000 808love 2624808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. LO went on a fieldtrip to the zoo when she was two. So funny- teacher had never taken the littles before. She ended up carrying LO part of the way!! After that no long walks, just short walk fieldtrips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624730 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 09:00:21 +0000 lawbee11 2624730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our preschool does field trips for the 3s and 4s (that's all there is at this school). The first one is next month to a pumpkin patch. I'm planning to chaperone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624727 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:56:34 +0000 psw27 2624727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO (age 2) has his first field trip on Friday. I was planning to go but they have enough chaperones so I missed the boat on signing up in time. Apparently the bus they have has some sort of flip down seats that have 5 point harnesses. I'm more worried about supervision. I'm also super jealous I'm not going. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624655 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:53:57 +0000 lamariniere 2624655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours does. They do big trips once a month and smaller trips almost every week. They even take the little ones if you sign them up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624653 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:51:21 +0000 Adira 2624653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I agree - 3 would be too young for a real bus I think! And yes, it definitely took a while to get everyone situated! They had to install all the car seats and then get all the kids strapped in. They had all the chaperones arrive an hour before the show so that there was plenty of time to go over the rules, assign buddies, and get everyone in vehicles. But it was a fun outing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624649 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:48:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 2624649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: that's great- although I feel like it must take hours to get everyone in! I just think 3 seems really young for a regular bus. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624647 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:45:26 +0000 Adira 2624647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: The daycare has a "bus", but it's really a 12 passenger van. They installed all the car seats that they could in there and used booster seats for some of the older kids. And then chaperones transported their own kids and if necessary, their kid's buddy. They had parents leave their car seats at the daycare to make sure everyone was transported safely! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624644 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:41:29 +0000 Foodnerd81 2624644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: what kind of vehicle did they take? C's preschool does a few field trips, some walking, but some on a school bus that I think just has seat belts. Kind of freaks me out to have three year olds in just a seatbelt even if it's close. I am thinking I might try to chaperone and drive... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624643 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:38:02 +0000 Adira 2624643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our preschool just recently did a field trip with the Preschool and Pre-K class (3 and 4 year olds). They went to a theater to see a magic show. I chaperoned. It was fun! :D</p> <p>It also made me feel really comfortable to see how they went about it. They made sure they had enough parents and teachers so every adult was responsible for two kids. And they also made sure all the littles were in 5-point harness car seats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624640 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 06:28:15 +0000 fancyfunction 2624640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our preschool starts field trips with the 3's. I know they'll be visiting a farm and M's excited to go on the bus! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/field-trips-1#post-2624631 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 05:19:26 +0000 mediagirl 2624631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your daycare do field trips for the older kids? Out daycare apparently starts field trips with the 4 year old group. So far this year they have plans to go to a farm and to go to Disney on Ice. Can I please be a chaperone for Disney on Ice!?!??</p> <p>Does your daycare do field trips for 4 year olds? </p>
