First Grade Field Trip to Seahurst Park!

Austin has spent the last couple of months learning about the Ocean and all it's inhabitants. His school set up a field trip to Seahurst Park to see and touch many of the things he has been learning about. I was thrilled to be able to join the trip and enjoyed spending some one on one time with Austin at the beach.



We were asked to have the kids wear some boots to keep their shoes from getting wet. I must say that Austin is one of a kind. Out of the 100+ first graders there, he was the only one that managed to get wet all the way up to his thighs. At one point he sat down, took off his boots, and dumped the water out! I really wish I had gotten a picture of that!



Seaweed...isn't it cool!

You can touch with 1 wet finger...
Touching a barnacle






Just having some fun


A wonderful day together!
