For this boy, what he loves include penguins, the outdoors, messing around on the computer, and of course Legos. When it comes to his beloved birds in the wild this first grader will get to see them early next month in Antarctica as they waddle on ice and feed their newly hatched chicks. Joined by his parents and an internationally known explorer and filmmaker, they will be heading off for a trip to the Antarctic Peninsula.
Children his age are not usually able to travel to a continent like this one. This kind of traveling even makes his friends want to celebrate the trip. That’s because the boy is taking his classmates at his school along. If all of them come too then the costs would skyrocket so what they have is an Internet linkup. Their live video coverage will also be accessible for students across the world.
