At the end of April, Isaac had his last field trip in Preschool. They went to Petsmart to learn all about the world of animals.
Honestly, Petsmart forgot this little group was coming, so they had a few lame people at first trying to talk to these preschool kids. I must say, talking to little kids is hard for some people. As they were using giant words and not being very explanatory... all I could think was, really?! They are 4 and 5! The kids starred at them blankly for the first part. I talked to them and got them to let the kids stand on the pet scale. Luckily, these people got called away and a young kid stepped in... who did an awesome job!
He totally chatted with the kids, explained things to them, told them about the animals, got them out for them to touch. He was perfect! Good thing too, cause he saved the field trip! At one point he threw a fish into a giant fishes cage. The kids smiled and then looked a little shocked as they watched that big fish swallow the little one! Lets just say we had a quick impromptu lesson on the food chain!
The kids ended up having a great time! They liked carefully poking the reptiles,(cause they can be scary) seeing bird eggs, watching the birds fly and talk, petting the guinea pigs. And they especially liked when one of them wet all over the guy giving the tour!
