Another ... field trip!

I must be new to this homeschooling thing because I signed up for way too many field trips! But it really has been fun.

Here we are at an old-fashioned turn-of-the-century ice cream parlor in Columbus, Indiana, which is also a museum.

 

 

 

 

Columbus also has this amazing indoor playground. The kids LOVED it.

 

 

I also took Meredith to a fire safety program at a local fire department. It was really great because they filled a room full of artificial smoke to show the kids how to "fall and crawl" in the case of a fire and covered other basic info.

 

They also had the kids practice crawling out of a window.

 

Kevin took the day off work and we all went down to Marengo Cave in southern Indiana. We had a 60-minute tour of one part of the cave and a 90-minute tour of another part of the cave. The kids also got to mine for gemstones, which they really enjoyed. Unfortunately I only had my phone to take pictures with. :( We would definitely go back! Marengo Cave was great.
