Field Trip to the Fire Station - A.M. Class

On September 25th we went on our first field trip to the Fire and Police station. A retired Firefighter gave us the tour. We were able to crawl in the fire trucks to look around, try on the uniforms, and check out the Jaws of Life. Unfortunately they didn't allow any horns or sirens to be blown in the fire station. It was still a fun trip as a class. Here are some of the highlights...Timmy, Mrs. Kirstin, Katlyn, Lincoln, Sydnee, Asia, Perla, Savannah, Damon and Kinsley lined up outside of a fire truck.
Damon wearing the very heavy Fireman's Jacket.... (Resistant up to 800 degrees.)
Amelia all smiles with a helmet on.
Sydnee isn't so sure about life being a firefighter.
What it looks like on the inside.... (A firetruck.)
The class in the truck, and mother helper, Michelle.
The kids listening intently to Lee, our tourguide.
The jacket drowns Lincoln, but he is excited to be wearing it nonetheless!
Hmmm....Savannah wonders if she is going to have to rush to put out a fire. Perla came equipped with her own firefighter helmet the day of the fieldtrip, but was so ecstatic to get to put on a 'real' one.
Timmy got nervous to pose for the picture, but had a blast pretending to be a firefighter.
