Going to the Zoo!

“We’re going to the zoo-zoo-zoo, how about you-you-you??” If you don’t know this song, you are probably thinking I have lost my marbles. My mom, who was an early childhood teacher for years, would sing this song to us growing up, especially when we would go to the zoo. And, of course, I sing it to our children now. Our family loves to go the zoo. We have been to our local zoo many times and it never gets old. Some days the gibbons holler like crazy, other days the zebras are front and center, and we always like watching the meerkats crawl around their maze- like habitat.  In addition to animals, there is the playground and carousel, which my son LOVES. One thing I love doing at the zoo is taking pictures of the animals (and now my children with the animals). There is always something going on at the zoo.

Our family loves to do things outdoors so we knew we would be back more throughout the year.  Financially it makes sense as well. It pretty much pays for itself in two visits. There are days we decide on a whim to go to the zoo and run errands in the same proximity. For us, it is a nice “getaway”. Since we have a membership we don’t feel guilty for popping in for an hour or so. Let’s admit, all day at the zoo with kids is EXHAUSTING. We usually pick one area of the zoo (say elephants and giraffes) and then have a picnic with a packed lunch from home. We don’t feel pressured to see EVERYTHING because we can come back anytime to see more animals and other areas.

Another perk of our zoo membership is that there are reciprocal zoos and aquariums around the states that we can go to for free or for a discounted rate. When we visit my parents, out of state, we can go to the zoo with them for FREE. I like free. I always look into what reciprocal zoos or aquariums we can visit when travelling to another city. When going on a family trip spending can add up quickly so knowing that one activity would be free or close to it is a relief!
