Zoo Resources for Preschool

August 22, 2013 by Maureen Spell 2 Comments

It had been awhile since my children had been to the zoo. In fact, my younger girls couldn’t remember ever going! So last week we went on a family field trip to the zoo! I even bought a membership so that we can go a couple more times during the year so that we can really stay and observe animals without feeling like we have to see the whole zoo in one trip.
