Looks tasty!

Halloween time.

"Entering the web of learning"

The students loved doing Halloween activities.
The kindergarten class talked about what costumes they would wear.

The preschool students made jack o' lantern windsocks.

The TK class practiced their math skills with candy corn.
Munching math makes it fun!

A little "corny" fun.

The corn shed at the corn maze was a kid favorite!

All aboard!

The kids riding the cow train at the corn maze.

Our a-MAZE-zing field trip.

This fall, ABC School went to a corn maze for a field trip.

We took a hayride to the maze.

These boys teamed up and made it through the maze in record time.

After the maze everyone took a ride on the cow train.

The cow train rides through the maze.

The cow train was so much fun!

Everyone got to pick their own pumpkin.

This little sweetie couldn't decide which pumpkin to pick.

Pumpkins are the best.

We're farmers!

All of the kids loved seeing all of the farm animals.

The corn shed was one of the best parts of the trip.

The kids loved jumping and rolling around in the corn kernels.

After the corn shed, we went to race rubber ducks.

The kids pumped water and raced their ducks to the other side.

Pumping water is hard work.

Everyone had the best time!
