Firetruck at school

At preschool, Daniel is discussing community helpers. As part of this unit, the teachers arranged a firetruck to come visit the school. It was in the morning and Daniel goes to school in the afternoons so we made a special trip to see it. The preschoolers got to go inside to see a presentation by the firemen while the moms (and siblings) waited outside. This gave the little ones a chance to see the firetruck up close before it was invaded by preschoolers.



The firemen talked a little bit about the truck and then gave the kids a tour.



They even got to walk through it. Daniel thought that was pretty cool.


Here is a group shot of all the kids.


Then the firetruck had to leave. It left with its lights and sirens on. It was a fun outing. When the teacher asked who was going to be a fireman when they grew up, almost all the kids raised their hands. Daniel, however, did not saying "I'm going to be a police officer." That's a change from last year.
