We love field trips, who doesn’t? As homechoolers we have gone on amazing field trips over the last 14 years including swimming with sting rays in the Cayman Islands, hiking through a rain forest in Jamaica, visiting Historic Williamsburg, Yellowstone National Park and the Kennedy Space Center, just to name a few.
Unfortunately, public school kids don’t get the awesome opportunities we do. School budget cuts are severely hurting field trip funding and we all know kids learn and retain a lot more by doing and experiencing than they do just sitting in a classroom. Well, Kraft Lunchables is stepping up to the plate to help 50 deserving classrooms experience amazing field trips. You can head over to Field Trips for All and nominate a deserving class. You can also watch the video in my sidebar for more information.
The “Field Trips For All” program is the first effort from the Lunchables’ new initiative- Project Potential. Aimed at empowering kids with opportunities that help them realize their full potential, Project Potential will provide enriching encounters kids otherwise wouldn’t have the chance to experience.
