Tots & Turtles

Tots & Turtles

Children 2 - 4 years old with a parent/guardian

Tots & Turtles is a six-week toddler & parent/guardian education program for children ages two to four that will introduce your child to interactive environments filled with learning opportunities. Each week children and parents/guardians will meet a new animal friend and take part in activities designed to assist with toddler development.

Each one-hour session is limited to 15 children to ensure individual attention. A 1:1 child-to-adult ratio is required for this program. Siblings are not allowed to attend with participants. Lessons are created and taught by the Zoo's Education team.

Cost:
Zoo Members • $125
Non-Members • $145
