Tanganyika Wildlife Park Field Trip

Another benefit of being a stay home Mom is getting to volunteer for kids school activities. This morning was a full day for this temporary and almost over, stay at home Mom.

Brenley's preschool class went to Tanganyika Wildlife Park in Goddard.  We actually had never been there before, but basically it is like a big large petting zoo, where they also house some endangered species.

Brenley and her friends got to feed Lemurs (no pictures of that taken since I had two little girls attached to my legs screaming). Needless to say, they were not really into that. Surprisingly, though, while lemur's look a little scary with their weird eyes, they are gentle and very soft.

We were able to pet kangaroo's, bunnies, goats, and turtles.  It was a busy little morning for all of these sweet faces.






These girls are all smiles standing OUTSIDE that Lemur cage, but that wasn't the case INSIDE the cage!


These are kangaroo's





Then this afternoon I taught my first Junior Achievement class to Beau's 3rd grade class at Maize South Elementary.  I will go there each day this week to review business and the economy. He is so thrilled (heavy with sarcasm here), but I loved it.  It's really great being so involved, and it really makes me appreciate more the teachers and administrators who take care of my kids all day long, and do a really great job.
