I'm taking my 4 year old out of school next feb. for a week.
He's still young, And anyway the last two days before holidays they're allowed to bring toys and games to school, so no real learning (he's in a Montessori school) and the week before the holidays is usually quite slow
I don't mind taking him out of school, especially since this year they have a theme dealing with "my friends from around the world", and he'll have a show and tell day two weeks after we return. That will give him much to talk about, and my oh my, he talks a lot
I consider that before 6 or 7 they are young enough to skip class for a couple of days. Especially if they are given the opportunity to do things new and experiment.
Of course I wouldn't take him out of school just to stay glued to the TV all day.
Walking, seeing, playing, discovering, well, call that a field trip
