Petting Zoo Field Trip

I bet none of you have ever been to a Petting Zoo in a department store. I can now say that I have. My class went on a field trip last week to a Petting Zoo on the top floor of a nearby department store, complete with a pony-riding area on the connecting rooftop.

In the morning I asked my kiddos what we were doing that day and if they were excited. I took a video of each one of them, and you can see them below, along with some pictures from the day.

Austin and Byeong-Soo LOVED the Sand Fish

Timothy holding "Peanut" (We have a part-time class pet hamster named "Peanut," so naturally the kids call all hamsters "Peanut")

Amber and Timothy had their hamsters kiss

Austin finally caught a Sand Fish

Jade loved holding all of the "Peanuts" and she's almost even smiling!

Jade NEVER smiles for pictures, so it must have been a good day for her because she even waited for me to have my camera ready to take this picture.
