Xander's class had a field trip at Chelsea and they planned to visit the Tree house, Jiffy Mix and Bear Factory, students got a teddy bear at the end of the tour (of course you have to pay for the bear and admission to the Tree house). It was Khai's spring break, so I decided to take Khai along with us.
We learned that Khai couldn't enter the Jiffy mix tour few days before the trip because he is under 6, so I told him ahead of time that he cannot attend the tour but we could walk around Chelsea down town. We pass Chelsea every Friday to go to Chinese school but only stopped there to visit its farmers' market few years ago. It would be nice to walk around there.
The Tree house was a indoor playground which is pretty similar to McDonald's except it sells pizza and expensive meals. Kids were having lots of fun running around and playing with their friends. They finished their pizza and lemonade, ready to visit Jiffy Mix cross street. Khai and I had 90 minutes break so we walked to Chelsea downtown and visited small shops. It was a nice day outside and so fun to walk around with Khai. We even stopped by a flower shop and looked at their fancy water fountains.
We still had 20 minutes before the class came to the Teddy Bear Factory, so I took Khai to visit the factory first. It wasn't the factory that I thought you make a wish and stuff inside your bear and get your hands on building your own bear. It just a store displayed many already finished teddy bears and you saw some people sewing the bears or stuffing cottons inside the bears through the glass.
A lady did gave us a tour and told about the history of the teddy bears, she then took us inside the factory and explained us how they made a teddy bear by showing us the patterns, plates and cutting machine. We ran out of time so we had to wrap up the tour and had each kid pick a teddy bear.
Xander said he had lots of fun at the Jiffy Mix and he picked up a Brownie mix from the factory, way to go Xander! It will be only 2 more years until Khai can visit Jiffy Mix. We had a long but fun field trip.
四月時傑升班上有一個戶外教學要去3個地方: 玉米粉工廠,樹屋及玩具熊工廠,每個小朋友參觀完工廠還可以帶一隻小熊回家做紀念(當然啦,在樹屋吃飯及那隻小熊不是免費的).想說那禮拜是煒勳的春假, 待在家裡也沒事那就一起去吧!
就在出發的前幾天,傑升的老師說煒勳不能去參觀玉米粉工廠因為他未滿6歲, 那好吧! 傑升他們去參觀玉米廠時我就帶煒勳去參觀Chelsea這個小鎮吧! 我們每個禮拜五都會經過這個小鎮去中文學校,可是就只有2年前去過一次而已.剛好趁這個機會去看看這個小鎮.
到了樹屋才知道這個地方就很像麥當勞的遊樂場,有一個室內的遊樂場:溜滑梯,吊槓及給小寶寶的小坃具. 吃完了午餐後傑升他們準備去隔壁的玉米廠參觀.我就帶著煒勳去參觀小鎮. 當天的天氣很好,我和煒勳慢慢的走,慢慢的參觀每家店.東西都太貴了,只可參觀不可買. 我們也到花店裡去看漂亮的花. 2 人的時光十分愉快吶.
哥哥他們還有20幾分鐘才會到熊寶寶工廠,弟弟和我實在等的很無聊我就先帶他進去參觀. 我以為這工廠會是讓你自己動手做你自己的熊寶寶,可是一進門才發現所有的熊寶寶都已經做好了.可是可以從窗戶裡看到裡面有人在縫熊寶寶,另一邊有人在塞棉花進去熊寶寶.
過了一會兒,傑升他們班過來工廠和我們集合.一位小姐介紹熊寶寶的歷史及讓我們進去工廠看他們如何製造熊寶寶.就只是看靜態的展示,那時沒有人在那製作. 我們趕時間要回學校,趕快讓小朋友們排隊挑他們喜歡的熊寶寶.
真是好玩又好累的一天.
