Meijer Gardens Field Trip

We had a great day today at Meijer Gardens!  Thankfully the rain held off, and we were able to spend a short time viewing the largest horse sculpture in the world before running or rolling down the big hill.  Then we went in to see the butterflies.  Some were even fortunate enough to have a butterfly or two land on them!  After the exhibit, we went to a classroom to do an activity centered on the life cycle of the monarch.  By this time we were pretty hungry!  We ate a chilly lunch outside.  Thanks to the dads who brought our lunches to us.  Then, we spent a little bit of time in the children's gardens.  I think we could have spent hours there alone! What a fun day!  Thanks again to all of the parent volunteers who helped us out!
