Visiting the Boise Zoo

The little one, my mom and I visited the Boise Zoo. The Boise Zoo is great for little ones. The whole zoo can be explored with a half day. I was surprised at how engaged my nine month old was with the animals. He enjoyed watching the active animals especially the monkeys, giraffes and this bird that was digging in the dirt for some grub. He also enjoyed the electronic dinosaurs that were throughout the zoo. Every staff member we met was courteous, pleasant and seemed great with kids. The zoo even has a carousel that the kids can ride for a $1! The Boise Zoo offers discount tickets on Thursday throughout the summer. When you go be sure you bring sunscreen, water, and quarters for the petting zoo where you can feed some of the animals, and dollar bills for the carousel.
