Temple Square Field Trip

Some of my friends and I thought it would be a lot of fun to have a summer of little "field trips" once a week. We sat down at the beginning of the summer and planned a field trip for every week.  This last week we went down to temple square and did a little picture scavenger hunt with the kids.  We printed up a scavanger hunt that we had found on pinterest.  The kids had so much fun walking around temple square and trying to find where the picture belongs.  It was also fun for the Moms to take a chance and talk to the kids as they found each picture and tell them about what we were looking at.  My favorite was at the Lion House as we sat out front of it and talked about Brigham Young and how he had over 27 wives.  The kids eyes all got really big and just we shocked by that.  It was so funny.  We finished the scavanger hunt then headed down to the church history museum to the kids center to cool off.  It was starting to get really hot.  It was a fun little field trip for all of us!




Don't they all just look thrilled to be there?

What a great idea! I wish we lived closer so our kids could do summer field trips together. :)
