Pre-K Fieldtrip: Auntie Anne's Pretzels

This last month of preschool, all of us are pretty worn out, so we decided to do some fieldtrips we didn't get to do throughout the year. Tara planned last weeks fieldtrip to Auntie Anne's Pretzels where we learned the history of pretzels from our guide, Kent. Our tour guide, Kent, happens to be a relative of Auntie Anne's, so it was fun listening to stories about the company that only he would know. and they got to make their own pretzels too!
Marci helped Sydnee make her own pretzel...
Here's a giant pretzel that Kent made...
Did you know?

• That pretzels are the oldest snack (1400 years old) in the world?
• That pretzels are shaped the way they are because the person who invented them made them for the kids he taught in Sunday school as a treat for them to eat. The shape symbolizes how the kids would pray by crossing their arms across their chest like a pretzel like Hallie's doing below.
• The Auntie Anne's store that we were at for our fieldtrip was the first Auntie Anne's store to open in our city, they have since moved locations and have opened many others in our state.
