Decorative texture

ZooTots (ages 2 - 5 years)

Join us for a six-week series where children learn through play with their favorite play partner: you! Each week you will make friends with nature through play experiences, art, songs, special animal friends and take a zoo hike to an animal exhibit.

Please note: Due to space limitations, only one adult may attend with each registered child. One adult may attend with two registered children, if they are both in the same class age group. Only those registered for the class may attend. Additional children that are not in the class age group are not able to attend with you and your child (including infants).

The next ZooTots series will start in March 2024. Check back in January for program information and registration.
