[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, I'm having trouble seeing the benefit to a trip like this. The planning and execution of a 2:1 ratio means almost half the kids' parents will have to take off work to escort. Sure the museums are neat, but how much is a 3 year old really going to get out of it? I'd rather just take my kid and a friend on the weekend. Or you could have some guy come to the daycare and do magic tricks and science experiments or bring some live animals for a show. The kids would be equally entertained and it's way less complicated.[/quote] I did a bunch of these trips with both of my kids. And they weren't complicated. But we use public transportation all the time so there is nothing exotic or scary or hard about it. IIRC my kids had a 4:1 teacher to student ratio at 3 so only a couple of parents were required. But usually more parents came than were required. Because the field trips were fun. But keep on being intimidated by standard things.[/quote]
