Field Trip to the Fun Center

For this month's field trip, Bridget got to go with her preschool class to a nearby Fun Center. At first I was a little skeptical about how educational this trip would actually be, but it ended up being a good mix of learning and fun.

The kids started off learning a little about bowling. Each child bowled a couple of frames, and then they got to go behind the lanes to see how the machines work. I even learned something new. Did you know bowling balls come without the finger holes in them? They drill the holes into them themselves. The also got to hold a bowling pin to check out its size and weight.

The next part of our tour was going into the kitchen to see how they make their pizzas.

While they waited for the pizzas to bake, each child got to sample a flavor of ice cream. Bridget chose birthday cake and seemed happy with her choice.
I didn't take any pictures of the next part of the tour - walking through the glow-in-the-dark mini-golf.

At this point, the kids finally got to eat their pizza before heading to what probably ended up being the favorite activities for everyone - the bounce house and trampolines. Thankfully, they didn't eat too much beforehand.

Bridget had a blast and can hardly wait to go back as a family.
