Preschool and Kindergarten Programs for School Groups

Bring your preschool or kindergarten group to the zoo for a fun-filled class! These 45-minutes to an hour-long classes will combine a classroom experience and either a visit to an area of the zoo or a live animal in the classroom (see below for descriptions). Programs are available to kindergartens, preschools, daycare centers, and other groups of 10-18 children and one adult for every three children. Program availability is limited.

Call 206.684.4841 to obtain an application.
Fee: $6.50 per person, includes admission.

My Grandma, What Big Teeth You Have! - In the classroom, we’ll study several animal skulls and see what they can tell us about what the animal would eat or how it gets its food and more. Next, we’ll visit the African Savanna and find some predators and their prey.

Who am I? - In the classroom you and your students will get up-close and personal with a variety of animal pelts, try and figure out which animals the skins belong to and learn some fun animal facts along the way. Then go for a short safari to the African Savanna.

Reptiles - Is a snake slimy? Do all lizards have legs? Have you ever looked inside a turtle shell? You and your students will learn all about snakes, lizards and turtles and meet one of our resident reptiles.
