[quote=Anonymous]I went on a field trip several years ago to the American History Smithsonian. An hour bus trip there and an hour back. Maybe an hour and a half in the museum--bag lunches outside for a half hour. We were divided into groups. When we were in the First Ladies' area, another parent was allowing her charges to run through screaming. (And, these kids are normally pretty well behaved.) As a child, in another state, these are the field trips I remember: We went to visit the newspaper and saw the printers, etc. We saw how the comic pages were made. Another trip was to a bank. They gave us each a deformed penny to keep. Wish I had kept it. It might be worth something today! They showed us the safe, etc. These trips were elementary level--fourth grade I think. [/quote]
