Post Office Field Trip

My daughter's pre-kindergarten class went on a field trip to the local Post Office today! It was really good fun! The kids (and parents and teachers) got a tour behind the scenes to see the sorting room and the parcel distribution area. They also get to buy a stamp each at the counter for pre-written letters and post them in the mailbox. They got to explore the back of a mail carrier's truck and have a group photo and they got to dress up as a mail carrier complete with hat and satchel!! This is my daughter and I posing! What a fun adventure. I'm so grateful to my daughter's school for making this field trip possible and for it being really relevant to their current unit of study - all about communications!!
