In April, we went to Soul Honey to tour a bee farm! It was our largest group yet and so much fun! The sweetest family owns and runs the farm/field trips. She educated us about bees, showed us the hives, and the garden she's growing to attract more bees. They had a large playscape for the kids to play on and sold many products in their store. I hope to visit them every few years to help their business and see how they grow!

In May, we went to the Dallas Museum of Art for a private lesson on Art Olympics where we studied art from ancient Greece and Rome. Our teacher, Leah, was awesome!! She really got the kids attention and it was right at their level. We had another great turnout which always makes it more fun.
The kids did a parade like the Opening Ceremony.
They learned about the ancient olympics and how they are different now. They acted out different sports (track, swimming, discus, etc).
They each decorated their own medal for something they excel at.

Afterward, we enjoyed lunch at Klyde Warren Park. We got pizza from a food truck and it was YUMMY! The kids played at a playground/splashpad nearby. It was so nice!!
I'm so glad I took the leap and formed this field trip group! I am looking forward to next year, and making a few minor changes. I have so many fond memories from the field trips I went on as a child and hope to give my boys the same opportunities.
