Themes:

  • December 27 – Winter Homes and Habitats
    Why doesn’t the Zoo close during winter? Come find out as we explore winter homes and habitats! We’ll be learning about Earth’s coldest habitats, as well as taking a look at how our animals survive and thrive during the coldest time of the year.
  • December 28- Winter Adaptations
    Animals develop extreme ways of coping with winter’s cold weather. In this class, we’ll learn about adaptations of animals who deal with cold weather all year long! While we’re at it, we’ll take a look at how the Zoo cares for animals that aren’t from cold habitats.
