My Little Zoo Animals



Kathryn and Daniel really enjoyed their trip to the zoo. Between the animals, the bug play area, the carousel, and our yummy picnic lunch, it was a great day. Field trips like this are the icing on the homeschool cake!





The carousel is fairly new, and it has plenty of exotic zoo animals to ride. Kathryn chose this zebra, and Daniel rode on a dolphin next to her.




Kathryn likes to pretend she's a spider.


This is safer than riding the real thing...


Daniel enjoyed being a spider on the climbing ropes. He can get all the way to the top easily these days.



A bumblebee makes a great seat.




The rhinos have been off exhibit while they have been renovating and expanding their habitat. It doesn't officially open until next spring, but we got a sneak preview this visit. Only two of the rhinos were there, but there will be 8-9 when the habitat is complete, including some young rhinos. In the meantime, we got to enjoy the rhino statue.
