On Monday, kindergarten students took a field trip to Heap’s Giant Pumpkin Farm . Our trip started off with a lesson about the different types of pumpkins, squash, and gourds grown on the farm. The students learned that ninety different varieties are grown there. They learned about the life cycle of a pumpkin and how bees play an important part in their growth. After our science lesson, we took a hayrack ride through the pumpkin patch where the children were able to see the vines, leaves, flowers, and pumpkins. We took a break to enjoy a picnic lunch together. Next we made our way over to the farm animals where we observed chickens, goats, a donkey, a pig, and some turkeys. The students enjoyed spending time running through the wooden ship and castle playground, exploring the hay bales and corn bin, climbing through the tires, soaring down the giant slide, and letting their imaginations run wild on the train. To wrap up our trip, each student was able to choose a pumpkin to take home. The students had a wonderful day of fun, learning, and exploration!
