Going on a Pic-a-nic

Last Friday my Kinder class went on a picnic. The kids were ecstatic about the event and came to school all decked out in their LCI uniforms, sunhats, and sunglasses. We hopped on the bus and soon arrived at a local park. All the kids walked up the path with HUGE smiles on their faces.

My Kinder girls looked adorable in their sunhats! All the children were wearing them since here in Korea everyone wants to be out of the sun. The hats seemed to get cuter and more obnoxious with every turn I made as I surveyed all of the classes from our school around the park. All I could think was, 'Those hats are so Korean.'

But one of my boys probably looked the cutest....and he had the sass and attitude to rock this priceless picnic look too!
We soon got right into all the games that we had prepared. We had games with bubbles, games including tunnels, hula hoops, and a run and hug your friends game!


Soon the kids were sweaty and starving. We were given adorable little snack packs full of kimbap, a popular Korean food for picnics, and some other yummy snacks for them to eat afterwards. I even got a teacher portion which was delicious!

The kids were having a blast stuffing their faces on picnic blankets and
picnic tables all around the park.
Some parents had even packed some snacks I recognized from home!!! 
Oreo's, cheeto's, and fruit-roll-ups!

Soon lunchtime was over, and we got to do one last fun thing for the day! We made pinwheels! The kids ran around the park in absolute mayhem watching the pinwheels spin and posing for pictures,

The field trip was a huge success and so much fun. Teaching continues to give me new experiences, like this field trip that will serve as a bittersweet memory for me. I had such a great time and will miss going on field trips with these kids in the future! There is truly nothing quite like it. What a great Korean style picnic with my adorable little Kinder class..
