So we have field trips come to us! Our fire department will send a truck and crew to visit schools. And yes, it is SO important to teach children not to fear the firefighters in their gear and the importance of not hiding! When I worked at my previous preschool, the firefighters would sometimes put the gear on a teacher, so the kids could see someone they know and love in it and know not to be afraid. I was the lucky one to get dressed up one time. Holy cow, that gear is HEAVY!<br />If my nugs weren't loose cannons when it comes to going potty (some in diapers, some potty trained and the potty trained ones don't know how to hold it until they find a bathroom!), we could go on more walking trips to the actual college campus across the street. There are some woods and grassy areas around the school that we can visit, and they think that's a great trip!Dyanne @ I Want Backsieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946323852124525597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-69848521158907760492021-06-27T23:59:33.050-05:002021-06-27T23:59:33.050-05:00Glad you looked out the window, so you didn't ...Glad you looked out the window, so you didn't miss a great unplanned field trip. I can just imagine the stories the kiddos told their parents when they got picked up. <br />The sidewalk drawing of you with your crazy hair is so cute.<br />#10 Whew. I hope so.<br />That whole "How old am I?" seems to throw more than one person into thinking sometime in their life that they are a year older than they are. Been there, done that, and I know of others who have done the same. It never seems to be the case of thinking you are a year younger.

...So many thankfuls, i hope the apartment is a yes.<br /><br />Smart move, taking your littles out to see the firefighters. Are they allowed field trips? When mine were in the 3-year-old class, there was always a trip to the fire station, where one of the firefighters put on full gear while they watched, and then came and shook each child's hand. They do that to familiarize young ones with what they look like in their gear. Nothing, they told us, upsets them more than knowing a child is in a burning house and hiding because s/he sees a firefighter in that gear and thinks it's something to run away from.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.com
