Emily's class had a field trip to Safety City. A miniature city of Knoxville for kids to learn safety laws for pedestrians, traffic and fire. She and I had a great time. There was lots of sunshine and I actually learned a thing or two. I was also reminded to get a fire extinguisher for the kitchen and replace my smoke detector batteries. The kids got to drive minature cars and ride bicycles around this mini city. They had to obey the stop signs, stop lights, railroad crossings, and yields. It was pretty tricky. Emily actually got in a "car accident" and recieved a "citation" (25 second break) from the Safety City Cop. Looks like we will need a few more lessons before taking her on the real road.
