2nd Grade Field Day...

OhEddie

It was Field Day for the 2nd graders at my sons school.

First up was the Hippity Hop races, but first I must explain the rules.

First kid gets on the Hippity Hop and hops to a pile of items on the ground, picks one up and hops back, then gives that item to the next kid in line.

That kids hops down and picks up another item. as time goes on the last kid will end up with about eight items they have to hold onto while they hop back on there Hippity Hop.

Well that's probably more than enough.

They'er really just snapshots caught on the fly.

I just hope I captured the fun feeling of a day out of the classroom.

All 119 shots can be seen here...

Looks like fun was had by all! Awesome photos! I really enjoyed them...

One thing to think about, though, is permission. I am not sure the rules on taking photos of others' children and posting them in public forums. I always get permission and you may want to check on the rules with your school.

photogmomma,

This is my second son to go from K-5 at this school. When the kids see me they all say "Hey Camera Man". I send links to all my pics to the principle, all the teachers, and most all of the parents.

They all know where to find pics of the kids activities weather they be sports, class parties, class plays, field trips, ect.

Nobody has ever said anything except thank very much for the photos.
