Field Day at Buffalo Ridge Elementary School


Field Day nowadays are a heck of a lot better than when I was a kid. Aidan's looked like a blast. Each grade chose their theme (i.e. the kindie's were Power Rangers) and they had a select time to come out and enjoy the fun. They started at the bouncy house. One for boys and one for girls (probably a good idea with how rough boys usually play). They then headed out to the field and played a Darth Vader game. A huge black blow up ball was Darth and two kids at a time had a chance to push the ball into other kids. Just looking at the children they looked like they were having a blast. Then it was time for the "donut fight". Two kids at a time tried to knock each other down by pushing against the "donut" surrounding their bodies. Once again, it looked like a total blast. Unfortunately I needed to head back home to put Kellen down for a nap so I didn't see all the activities, but Aidan said there was an obstacle course, which was his favorite event. They also got to eat a popsicle after the event another highlight to the day.
fun! Can I be a kindergartener again?

Our field days were relay races and hopscotch! But we did get paper "medals" when we completed events! Those were the days!
