We took a walking field trip this week to the fire station.
The firemen were so good with the children and really did a good job showing them around the station. 
They put on all of the gear as the students are watching so that they won't be afraid. I still had one girl that cried almost the whole time they were dressing up. From what the firemen said this happens a lot and some small children are afraid of them when they enter a burning house to get them out. They have even had some run and hide from them. So scary!!!! 
The fire hose and the ladder where the students' favorite things about the day. They loved going!!!! It was a great trip.

What a great field trip! i just took my cub scouts to the fire station this week. They enjoyed trying on the coat and hat. Apparently, it smells like burnt bacon. lol
That would be so much fun! I want to do it as an adult!!
How fun. I bet those kids will always remember it. You're a great teacher.
