Preschool Field Trip

Amanda's preschool class took a trip to a local wild animal park. It's similar to a zoo, but their focus is on animal breeding. They also are unique in that they have many animals that you are able to interact with. These tortoises were hilarious! They were FAST and they loved eating our shoes! : ) They kind of freaked Amanda out when they would come running up to her but when they started biting her toes she was DONE! Wish I had a video of that.

There is a walk through kangaroo exhibit and if the kangaroos come up to you (we have to stay on the path) then you can pet them. We only had one taker today, but one was all this little animal lover needed! We stayed until the little guy was tired of being petted.

The only separation we had from this huge rhino was a 4 foot ditch. We got some great up close looks at him.

The best part by far is the ring-tailed lemur exhibit. As part of our tour, each child was given a dried cranberry to feed anyone interested in climbing into their laps.

(guess I should have cropped out the butt in the photo. Oh, well... not MY butt! : )
