"But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give a reason for the hope you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." 1 Peter 3:15

Zoo Field Trip

Today is Veteran's day and Matt had it off of work. So, instead of completely cancelling school (again this week, Monday was a local holiday), I planned a zoo field trip. In Science this week we just finished a chapter on Mammals, Reptiles, Amphibians, Birds etc...and the curriculum suggested a trip to the zoo anyway...making today a perfect day to spend time together as a family, have a field trip and still count it as school :)
I was feeling a little sad this morning, thinking this was to be our very last trip to the Singapore Zoo...but God is good and we had a great day. The weather was really nice, we had a lot of thunder and cloud coverage, cooling us off, but no rain.
Some of the mammals we saw:

Some birds we saw:


Reptiles:

We saw many other different types of creatures as well. Here are a few pictures of the kids doing their work:

We also took some time out to eat and play!
