Visit the Zoomagination Station! Designed especially for children ages 3–5 and their grown-ups, you can choose to listen to an engaging story, explore themed activities, and let imaginations run wild with costumes, props, puzzles, and more.

Children of all ages are welcome to join with their adult(s), but younger participants will get first access to activities. Drop in to the Education Center anytime between 10:30–11:30 a.m. and stay for five minutes or the full hour—it’s up to you!

Spots & Stripes
Do you like to play hide and seek? Some animals can keep themselves hidden better than others. They can blend in so well they almost disappear! Having spots or stripes can help animals hide. So can have dark fur to keep from being seen at night or having white fur to blend into the snow. What color would you want to be if you lived in a forest? What about a desert?
