As our little ones get older we find ourselves making our way to our Seattle neighborhood Woodland Park Zoo. We've mostly visited during the winter time for their Zoo Lights events, but this year we've found it to be a stimulating place to learn about animals or at least just point at them and say their names.
I find it hilarious that at our kiddos age, they really don't yet understand the various animals and the regions that they naturally represent. And that they can find fun and joy in the simplest of things like stairs and rocks to climb on.
Once we made our way to see the otters, where the kiddos can smudge their noses on the glass and get right up close - they go crazy.
And the day wouldn't be complete without folks riding on the carousel. Because who doesn't like spinning round and round on a horse moving up and down. Classic.
