Allie's class went on a field trip to Aspirus Wausau Hospital this week and I got to go along. We spent an hour at the hospital. For the first half hour, a nurse explained to the kids about what might happen if they had to stay in the hospital. She had the kids act out some scenarios, like riding in a wheel chair, getting an x-ray, and getting an IV. She also listened very patiently as all 20 kids told her a story about the time that Mom, or Grandpa, or Little Brother was in the hospital for whatever reason. The second half hour was spent walking through the hospital. I think the best part of it all, for the kids, was the elevator ride.
Allie wrote about the field trip in Writer's Workshop and this about sums it up!

At least she only saw sick PEPOL, and not dead ones! (remember: i see dead people)
Did they get to take their teddy bears for the teddy bear clinic?
I would be willing to bet that those cute kiddos made the sick Pepoll feel better.
