Zoo Camp

This week, Luke & Emry are attending the summer school camp at the local zoo. They didn't like getting up early on Monday, but this morning they were up and dressed before I was out of the shower!! So awesome!! I love it when my kids are excited about life! Here are some of the things they are doing...

- spent time in the zoo library learning about animals

- toured the zoo

- made fruit kabobs for the bats, and then fed them

- they saw the huge pile of horse meat for the lions and tigers

- got to see how the veterinarian takes care of the sick animals and the babies

- a new tiger was delivered yesterday and today was his first day in his new enclosure

- collected peacock feathers

- cleaned up chimpanzee poo

- ps, the chimps have a tv in their room for learning. They are as smart as a 4 year old. Luke waved to one and she waved back.

- said, "hola" to the parrots and they talked back!

- Played in the sprinklers

- and rode on a train.

much more to come tomorrow.....stay tuned!
