Stroller Safari
Pack up the stroller, put on your walking shoes and bring your little one on an early learning adventure as we stroll through the Zoo. This special class is designed for children ages 0-3 and a caregiver. Make new friends while you visit animal exhibits, meet a friendly animal ambassador, read a story and explore the animal world with all your senses!
Stroller Safari will meet monthly on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 8:45am – 9:30am. Class on Tuesday and Saturday will be the same, so you will only need to attend once. This 45 minute program will occur rain or shine, please dress yourself and your little one for the day’s weather. You will meet the Zoo Educator outside the front gate at 8:30am – the program begins promptly at 8:45am.
Registration for all programs will be processed online on a first-come, first-served basis. We do not take registrations over the telephone. Class size is limited to the first 8 families who register.
