There is a lot to see but with children it is a bad idea to even try to do it all in one day. Try to plan the areas you most want to see in advance. I wish I could go more often and should since I live here!

L~O~V~E the zoo :o) Try to visit a couple times a year, which is my opinion isn’t enough.

Highlighted Visits ~

Baby panda’s 1st birthday ~ loved the humongous bamboo and fruit popsicle
Boo at the Zoo ~ No child should miss this event. Trick Or Treating at it’s safest and best as you collect treats and see the animals at night and millions of other Trick Or Treaters dressed up
ZooFari – No Adult should miss this! OMG one of the most delicious and coolest ways to spend an evening with all you can eat from great restaurants in the city
GuppyGala – You’ve Gotta take your kids, just once! Similar to ZooFari but totally overboard on the kid theme. Way too overwhelming for them, and hard to pack it all into one night, but soooo worth it (just take the pictures early on)
My daughter’s 4th birthday party – They gave us a private room and had a tour guide walk our group through the Ape House. A Great Day (without messing up our house) and made me eligible for the Best Mom Award from her and her friends.

Tai Shan will remain at the zoo through 2009 by Pattie A.

The Washington Post reports today that the zoo reached an agreement with China to allow giant panda cub Tai Shan to remain here another two years, instead of returning this summer, as originally planned. Yippee!
