UNIVERSITY PARK (Centre
Co.) Kids love to see new and
different things, and field trips are
great ways for child care providers
to meet this need.
These excursions can be as
simple as a walk to a near-by park
or more elaborate, like a trip to a
zoo or a farm. Successful field
trips are well planned, and always
have safety in mind.
Parents, you should be notified
each time a trip or outing away
from the child care center or home
is scheduled, even if you signed a
general permission form when
enrolling your child. You need to
know where your child is at all
times and the type of activities

should be appropriate for the age
of your child.
Ask your child’s caregiver if
extra help is needed the day of a
field trip. If so, see if you can rear

to help. Kids love it when their
parents can come along.
Help your child prepare for the
upcoming experience more by
talking about it, showing pictures,
or reading a story about the type of
place to be visited.
