Zoomazium Program Opportunities
Creature Features
Daily programs in which children can get up close with live, furred, feathered or scaly animals. Meet the star from a puppet story. Practice observation skills to discover who’s in the Mystery Box. Design a play space for a curious creature and watch as it explores.
Nature Exchange
Staff at Nature Exchange love to hear about the exciting things children see in nature and at the zoo. Children bring in drawings, photos, research or cool nature items and earn points to trade for the natural items in our ever-changing collection. Self-guided activities can be found on our website or picked up at the desk anytime. Trades can be made from 1-3 p.m. daily.
Puppet Shows
Animal puppets tell stories and sing songs. Children are invited up to dance and meet the puppets after the show.
Shake, Rattle & Roar
Toddlers and caregivers are invited to sing, dance, and play instruments to animal and nature-themed music.
Zoomazium’s Backyard
Explore the natural area next to Zoomazium anytime. Walk on the log balance beam, build with tree cookies, or create natural artwork at the sorting table. Additional activities such as Bug Hunts, Web Walks, or Scavenger Hunts are offered in the afternoon for Nature Exchange points.
