Preschool Field Trip to the Orchard

Tyler's 3 year-old preschool class took an October 4th field trip to Deals Orchard near Jefferson, IA. I tagged along for the morning. Unfortunately it was a very windy and cold day to be outside, but the kids still had fun. Tyler also helped me make cupcakes to bring to the orchard for his birthday treats.
His class
Learning about the apple sorter
Studying (seriously) the bee hive
Hay rack ride was a big hit. We were supposed to be able to pick our own apples, but the weather this past winter/spring ruined a lot of the crop and we weren't able to do that this trip.

Giant "slide"
Wheeeeeeeeeee
Long slide!
Corn pool
Tractor driving
Fun morning with new friends!
While we were at the orchard, Grandma Janelle and Hannah had some quality time together. It obviously wore little Hannah out, because we watched her quickly fade right after lunch started and she fell asleep - but at least not in her soup!
