May
Week In Review
We have been busily preparing for a trip to Disney World by studying the various countries at Epcot, learning about Walt Disney, and about how roller coasters work. We left on May 9th for Disney World and we came home on the 20th. We had a fantastic time!! Here is just a tiny peek into some of the educational things we did while we were there.
We visited all of the countries we had studied:
Hailey in Mexico
Hunter and Hailey in Norway
We ate lunch in America
Hailey in Japan
Hailey in Morocco
Hailey and Hunter in France
Hailey in Canada
Hailey in China
Hailey in Germany
Hailey in Italy
Hailey in the United Kingdom
We stopped and colored at the various Kidcot stops and learned some more about the countries.
While we were at Epcot we also visited the butterfly garden.
Hailey even had a butterfly crawl on her hand.
While we were at Hollywood Studios we visited One Man’s Dream- a museum all about Walt Disney. Hailey wasn’t too excited about going in at first, but she ended up loving it. She was stopping and reading everything and was excited when we would see something we had read about before our trip in Who Was Walt Disney?
Part of our day at Animal Kingdom was spent doing the Wilderness Explorer program- very fun and educational.
Hailey and Hunter worked on matching up dinosaur teeth.

Of course, we also saw lots of animals:
Hailey brushing a goat.
Hailey was very interested in this macaw. We stayed after the show so she could ask some questions and get her picture taken with it.
She was brave enough to touch this snake and also asked several questions about it.
On the safari ride, we saw crocodiles,
giraffes,
zebras,
a lion… and so much more!
And of course, we studied how rides and roller coasters work, so we had to get some real life experience with those too 🙂
