Dinos at the zoo! Part 2

Here are some more pictures from our day at the zoo on Saturday!

Styracosaurus

Kentrosaurus

Suchomimus

Megalosaurus

Allosaurus

At the end of the dinosaur exhibit, they had a little educational area for the kids. 


Leonard wanted a dinosaur of his own!

This weekend, they also had their indoor theaters open for free!  That saved us another $12.  One theater was  a ride simulator but Malachi was too small for it and I was afraid that Alyssa would be scared.  The other theater was showing a Dora show in 3D/4D.  We opted for the more kid-friendly one. 





Very successful Saturday morning zoo trip! Makes me want to watch some Jurassic park movies and some Dinosaur Train!

Dinos at the Zoo! Part 1

On Saturday the kids, hubby and I decided to take a trip to the Detroit Zoo.  We have a membership (since we live like 15 minutes away!) and the kids love it there!  The zoo currently has a dinosaur exhibit that is there until mid-September and I have been wanting to take the kids.  I really wanted Leonard to come along also just in case it was too scary for them and one of us had to make a quick exit.  This weekend, the dinosaur exhibit was free, normally $4 a person.  Since that was the case, I decided that this weekend was the weekend to go.  It saved us $12!
