Where and when do I drop my child off?

On the first day of the program, please arrive by 8:45am. The drop off/pick up location may change for the 2025 programs, so updated drop off/pick up info will be included in the reminder email that is sent before each program week.

Where do I pick up my child?

Children will be picked up at 2:00pm at the same location as drop off.

What should my child wear?

Make sure your child is dressed for the weather. We spend most of the day outdoors and do a large amount of walking, so we recommend that children wear comfortable shoes and do not wear sandals, crocs, or open toed shoes.

What should my child bring?

• Sneakers or boots only (no sandals, crocs, flip flops, or open-toed shoes). Shoes must be comfortable enough for children to walk all over the zoo.
• Backpack
• A pencil bag with colored pencils, markers, crayons, small paint brush and regular pencils.
• Additional clothing depending on the day’s weather forecast (i.e. extra socks, raincoat, sweatshirt, hat, etc.)
• Water bottle - We have water available to refill bottles, but, to minimize contact, we recommend packing two water bottles each day.
• Sunscreen
• Insect repellent
• Lunch with snacks
• Hand sanitizer - We have installed a hand washing station, staff will have hand sanitizer, and hand sanitizer is available in various locations in the zoo.
