Hello, Parents!

WOO HOO!  Our field trip to Nebraska City is this Thursday!  We are getting so excited for our road trip to Arbor Day Farm!  Here are a few things to remember:

–It will be important for your child to have a hearty breakfast that morning.  We won’t eat until about 12:00.
–We will be loading up our little travelers between 8:30-8:35.  Our goal is to hit the road at 8:40.
–We will return about 2:30.  At that time we will eat an orchard apple and watch a Johnny Appleseed video.
–The forecast for Thursday is calling for beautiful weather; but remember, we live in Nebraska!  Our trip will happen–rain or shine.
–Please make certain your child has a jacket for the cool morning hours and APPROPRIATE WALKING SHOES.  The trails are sometimes a bit muddy and rough, so proper shoes are a must.
–I have noticed that there are lots of mosquitos out right now.  You may want to apply bug repellent to your child before sending them to school.
–Please send a lunch with your child that is labeled with his/her name.  The kiddos seem to get very hungry on this field trip, so please supply ample amounts of food.  A disposable water bottle is a great beverage option for your child.
