Field Trip:
We had an adventure in the Blue Van Visiting the Veggies at Day's Market! They are so kind to give such fabulous tours to preschoolers! We were able to identify lots of fruits and vegetables and learned about some unique ones. We saw the "baler" AKA "box crusher" in action. We walked into the fridge and freezer. We saw the busy bakers in the bakery and watched in amazement as they put 20 pans into the giant oven at once. We nibbled on chocolate chip cookies. We took turns ringing up some groceries and turning the conveyer belt. We watched the cash drawer open. We loved everything!
