Tot Time

I just learned about this class at our zoo called Tot Time. Kids ages 18 months to 5 years get to go to the zoo for an hour long class. Daniel and I took Morgan on Saturday. Fittingly, the theme for the day was giraffes. Morgan got to hear a story about a giraffe, she learned cool things about them and got to touch an actual giraffe skull, neck bone and fur.


As part of a craft project, Morgan painted brown dots on this giraffe.



She got to pet a real turtle.


And she fed the giraffes too. Actually, Daniel and I fed the giraffes because she was a little frightened this time.



After our class, we took a leisurely stroll around the zoo.



There's this area in the zoo called Dino Dig. Kids get to use tools to uncover a dinosaur fossil. Morgan wasn't a big hit with the other kids because she preferred to cover up the bones instead of dig them up.




Morgan LOVED the petting zoo! It was a lot of fun!





It was a beautiful, relaxing day. It was warm with a nice breeze. I was trying to capture the gorgeous day with the below picture. The zoo was just extraordinarily nice this day.
