On Tuesday, September 27th, we went on our first field trip as a preschool group. Since we had a transportation theme for September, I organized a visit to the Parkwood Volunteer Fire Station in our neighborhood.
We were first greeted by Fireman Nick. He let all the kiddos climb inside the firetruck and explore a bit, trying on his helmet and sitting in the seats. The boys thoroughly enjoyed this, but Delainey was a little reluctant to climb inside.
We were then given a tour around the outside of the truck, where we were able to see the many compartments and tools that firemen use. Joseph was full of questions.
At the end of the presentation, Fireman Nick showed us how the fire fighters have to put their entire suit on in 90 seconds. He did not disappoint.
All the children were given stickers, helmets, and coloring books. We took a picture on the front of the fire truck, and then headed to a nearby park for a picnic and playtime.
Our first field trip as a preschool group was a success!
