We had a great day with Guide Dogs of America going to 4 different stations. In the Interview Station, the children got a chance to interview a blind person and learn about training the guide dogs. In the next station, we learned about different kinds of blindness. Next outside in the garden, the children experienced how a guide dog and guide dog owner interact with each other. Finally, in the last station, we learned about Braille.
