A trip to the post office

We did a mini field trip this week–to the post office! First we all made valentines to send (using lots of stickers, doilies, glitter, and tape), and then we braved the cold and walked to the post office next door. Each of the kids got to put their card into the mail slot. For me, mailing a letter is an uneventful task, but it was exciting for our gang to go somewhere new.
