Programs & Classes
Zoo Tots
Zoo Tots combines self-guided exploratory play with structured learning activities. Children can enjoy crafts, sensory bins, and educational stations during free play, followed by circle time, sing-alongs, and an up-close animal encounter. Each Zoo Tots session incorporates play-based activities designed to encourage observation, exploration, and discovery, fostering a love for science and learning in young minds.
