Mukilteo Beach Field Trip

Lizzy's preschool class decided to try something new this year and did a field trip at the beach. When you hear beach don't think of beautiful sand and warm sun--remember we are in seattle! Think lots of rocks, sun (surpisingly), COLD wind and the beautiful Puget Sound. Despite the cold, it was still a ton of fun. The field trip consitsed of 4 stations to learn about the beaches in WA. We did a craft, learned about Seaweed, kelp, etc...

Rocks like granite, the wishing rock, balsamic, etc.

Sealife: We found lots of Seastars (NOT starfish--they don't have gills), little crabs, snails, shells, etc. We even saw some seals swimming right offshore.
