Emily's Fieldtrip

Emily's class went on a field trip on Friday. They went to Stratford Ecological Center in Delaware, OH. It focuses on teaching kids to respect nature. It was a fun field trip. Emily got to clean and dry an egg that a chicken had just laid, feed chickens, pet goats, see pigs and cows, see a prairie where they foster plants and have a man-made pond, check out the greenhouse where they pulled up swiss chard, beets and carrots right from the ground and let the kids taste them. Of course, Emily's favorite part of that was to use the beet to paint her face.

Emily had a great time and wants to go back again sometime.
