Today I was a chaperon in my son's second grade trip. we went to Echo Lake Aquarium and Science Center in Burlington Vermont. The main exhibit is one of backyard bugs...don't ask me why, I don't make the rules. It was definitely not what I was expecting. We had a great time. They also have tons of frogs and turtles and many interactive activities for the kids.

Praying Mantis at least 12 feet tall

How fun! I miss those days when my kids were little. Now I have a little grandson that I adore and look forward to more field trips with him.
