On Friday Xander and I headed to the local grocery store, Giant, for a fun-filled field trip. While Xander and his classmates learned about the various food groups, the food pyramid, and all the different workers at a grocery store, I strolled along behind with a cart, getting some shopping done. Can we do this field trip every Friday?
One of Xander's favorite parts about the trip was all the goodies he gathered along the way - a sucker from the pharmacy, a cookie from the bakery, and cheese slices from the deli.
They put the kids to work in the meat department.
Xander got to package some meat.
Our guide brought out a lobster for the kids to pet...and then she rubbed the lobster's head until he fell asleep. Pretty cool.

That is definitely an awesome field trip!! I remember going on a field trip very similar to that at Harmons in the second grade. It was fun!! Xander is just looking so grown up these days!!
Oh awesome. That is a fun field trip, especially since the kids got to get free samples. Yum!
What the heck, I didn't know you could put a lobster to sleep!
