Zoo Classes
Yesterday, the kids took classes at the zoo and they had so much fun! Grandma wanted to gift each of the kids a class (she even went all out and got them their cute Zoo Camp shirts...which they promptly changed into before class even started) and I'm very thankful that she did. I thought they would be good, I had no idea that they would be awesome. Liv's was a parent-child class (she was not happy that I would be joining her, but actually did let me work with her on the crafts...a little bit) and the big kids were on their own. So, I thought I'd let the kids do the blogging for me and tell you about their classes in their own words.
Jack:
My class was about the veterinarians at the zoo. We got to see our cheek cells on a slide under a microscope. We also got to make a skeleton with popsicle sticks and sun-prints. My favorite thing was when a pachyderm zookeeper came in and told us about how they treat the elephants, hippos, rhinos and giraffes. We did observations in the cat house and up close & personal with the goats. I got to see a lot of interesting things today.
Olivia:
I took a class about giraffes. I made a puppet and camera and a leaf hat. We played games likes Moms blowing bubbles and kids hitting them with our tails (flyswatters...the bubbbles were supposed to be flies). In the tv, there was a talking giraffe. I saw two real giraffes. I learned all the stuff about them. They have good names. The class was really cool!
EJ:
I liked when I felt the baby chicks. I got to clean their cage. I liked making the horse bed for Bandit and I got to wear a Zookeeper jacket when I did it too. I can't wait to take another class at the zoo.
Your kids should be official spokesmen for the zoo! They are so eloquent. That vet class sounds really cool.
Zoo classes!! Awesome. I love Liv's giraffe puppet and leaf hat. I sort of want to make some of my own.
