Pumpkin Patch Adventures


Cedarwood Pumpkin Patch

Extending Learning Outside of the Classroom!


At the pumpkin patch, we had an exciting time learning about how pumpkins grow.
We learned that pumpkins grow on vines in gardens, and
sometime rot. Yummy :)
Some pumpkins were long, short, one even looked like an apple.




The pumpkin wagon was loaded and we were off to have a grand adventure!

Destination PUMPKIN!





This activity should have a warning label!
ENTER AT OWN RISK!
All the children, Dee and Heather decided to try the HAY MAZE without a flashlight!
WWWOOOOWWWW, SCARY!



Luckily, Eagleville Elementary was there to rescue Dee and Heather.

Don't they look like they are having fun?
Everyone was waiting at the exit talking them out!
They just couldn't find us!

OK, they didn't look this excited when they exited the hay maze.
Each of them had to be pulled from the terror!
But...it was a learning activity.

They both learned never to enter a maze with
a lot of children and without a flash light!

It has been suggested they they should be hay for Halloween! Ha,ha!
Feeding the animals was a great treat!
From the goats... ...

to the piglets. . . .


to the fish and ducks!



It was a great Adventure!
Thanks to the BEST parents for making it so special!
