Since Trevor is on spring break I set up a couple field trips for him through MOPS. The first one was to Albertson's for a Healthy Eaters Tour. The kids had a lot of fun walking around the store learning the importance of breakfast and learning what all the different colors of fruit mean for your body. I think the favorite of everyone that attended was all the samples! Lots of fresh fruit and sandwiches. We ended up having lunch there with all the food they gave us! Trevor is excited to use his card he got from Albertson's to go and get his free apple! Everytime we go in to the store if we bring his card he gets either a free apple or banana!
On Tuesday we had a tour at a Chinese restaurant where the kids got to make their own egg rolls. This is a favorite of Trevor's. This is the 7th time he has done this particular field trip. He is always requesting it. It is a lot of fun and great food too! The girls joined us for the first time and had a blast. Allie got into the egg rolling. Her favorite part was finger painting with the egg! Both Allie and Kara enjoyed rolling them up, but Allie enjoyed dipping her fingers in egg the most :)
There were a lot of kids that came and it was fun to sit down and enjoy our lunch that we helped make. Allie was being very helpful and picked up the container I was putting food in and rice came flying out when she turned it sideways. Rice was everywhere! Her pants, shoes, chair, floor... Rice is very hard to get out of clothes. She kept saying that she was helping mommy. She was a great help too, too bad I hadn't closed the lid first :)
Trevor is looking forward to more field trips. So far this summer we will be going to a pediatric dentist, local library and a radio station. I have others planned but so far they are not confirmed.
