Thank you for choosing to share your students with sweetFrog. We are
pleased to offer our Leap Forward Field Trips to teachers and their students
as a fun way to practice fundamental lessons being taught in school. Each
lesson plan has been carefully designed by teachers to match skill levels for
each grade. Every sweetFrog field trip ends in a sweet reward (a delicious
cup of frozen yogurt + one topping of your choice) — making this
excursion something both students and teachers can get excited about.
