Mommy Field Trip
Isabel's preschool teacher posted an activity on her blog last week. She let us know that Santa and some of his reindeer were coming to Weber State! Ben and Isabel were excited! I called Kandi, Tamina, and Jen to see if they wanted to join us. Jen wasn't able to come, but the others were! This is the best group shot I got of Isabel, Ben and Zoey. It was hard to Ben to not look at the reindeer. (Isabel kept saying that the reindeer were trying to eat her!)
Santa brought 2 reindeer with him; Snowflake and Blitzen. There were helpers outside the fence that gave the kids reindeer food, to sprinkle on the lawn so Santa would know where to land. (Such a cute idea!) The kids got green sparkly food!
After we saw the reindeer, we went inside to get pictures with Santa. They had this cute Grinch layout. The kids liked poking their heads out! This is Ben, Isabel, and Zoey.
We tried to take another picture with Tamina's kids......tried is a good word. I didn't get one picture where all of their heads were out! Still cute though. If I messed with photoshop, I could get a good one!
The line to see Santa wasn't long at all. We got there just in time! The only way Zoey would get up there was to have Kandi with her! Ben stood for this picture, but for individual pictures, he wouldn't do it. He sat on his bum, and scooted towards Santa. Santa help out a candy cane for Ben and motioned with his hand for Ben to come get it. Ben would just scoot on his bum a little closer. Finally Ben got all the way to Santa's feet. Santa reached to give Ben the candy cane and Ben couldn't reach it. Ben then motioned with his hand for Santa to bend down further to give him the candy. Santa said, "little boy, Santa can't bend over that far!" Ben finally reached up and got it from him. What a character. I really liked this Santa. He did a good job!
We managed to get a relatively good picture of all of the kids with Santa. Even Sam got to sit on Santa's lap! So cute! After pictures, we went upstairs to make a craft. They made a santa ornament for the tree, and a picture fame magnet for the fridge. Ben was definitely done after one craft! They turned out good though!
As soon as we walked out the doors of the bookstore, the kids saw the hill and ran over to it. They ran on it, rolled down it and just enjoyed themselves!
Isabel informed me that mommy field trips were way better than the school ones! Best part about this field trip, is that it was free! Hooray for free activities!
