Isaac's Thursday field trip with his barnehage

This week for their field trip, the older kids at the barnehage took the tram up to the city forest.  By older kids, I mean they are the two-year olds.  All the "babies" stayed back at school.  These pictures are all taken by Isaac's teacher.

I am so impressed by this entire phenomenon of weekly fieldtrips with toddlers.  I never see anything like this back in the States.  Every day here I see troops of kids out on trips with their teachers.  
Here are the kids waiting for the tram.  Isaac is second from the right.  The tram stop is a half a block from their school.  Note all the reflective vests. 
These are the four musketeers from Isaac's class. 
Isaac had a great view of the tram driver's controls from his seat.

Bye-bye tram! 
Surveying their surroundings - they were there to study birds, but they found all sorts of interesting things in the forest.

Hugs from Chantal 
All sorts of great discoveries were made.  Isaac is an expert in identifying poop.  Apparently he pointed it out all over on the hike - bird poop, horse poop, you name it, he saw it.
Picnic lunch

They always come to picnics 
What a view 

Isaac is eating a snake. 
Norwegian lunches consist of all sorts of stuff that come in toothpaste-like tubes.  Kaviar (fish paste), edelost (blue cheese spread), etc.  
This little girl has Isaac's favorite name to say: Hedvig Ingebørg.  


Isaac was pointing out poop in the flagpole. 



Heading back to school 
Happy boy
