Field Trip Friday

Choo Choo! Today we steam down memory lane with the Bee bunch! Watch out for the steam and stay off the tracks! Be sure to wave at the conductor and ask him to toot the train's horn!

Steam Train Field Trip
Originally posted May 13, 2006





While we were in Houston one weekend, there was a traveling steam train that claimed to be the world's largest that came to town. The kids enjoyed going up the stairs and talking with the engineer about the gears in the engine. They played in the steam next to the huge wheels. I copied a photo of our family standing by one of the wheels of the train to show you just how large they were. It was a HUGE train. They had a gift shop attached that you could buy prints and souvenirs from also. Trains have always infatuated Kaden. If you have a train to visit near you, you should go!

My post for this Friday is - Be On the Lookout... for a Field Trip. I tell about how we look for learning experiences as we are out doing errands or traveling.

We took a train tour at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry a few months ago. It was an interesting ride!

My field trip is a nature walk we took last fall with our homeschool group. Please email me at oillady@charter.net for access to my family blog.
