Columbus Sailed the Ocean Blue

The kids and I went on a field trip to see the Nina and the Pinta with some Co-op friends. We had read books about Columbus and his ships the day before and the kids were excited to see them up close.

Here L is contemplating on what it must have been like to live on these ships for so many months.......or maybe she's just tired.

It was a great time and I always love to see that my children love to learn about new things. Our group was complimented on how well our kids payed attention. The tour guide said he had never seen kids their age so interested and attentive for the whole tour. It's all about instilling a curiosity to learn!
