I was super excited to take the kids to Copenhagen Zoo, because I’d heard that it was great for young children. And so we spent the whole day there, much to their delight! There really is something about kids and zoos… 🙂

 

 

We couldn’t resist getting a wagon for the kids. Best move ever, because they adored it! It was surprisingly easy to drag along and maneuver, and was fab for dumping all our bags into as well.

 

 

I thought the little ‘show and tell’ session that they had with rabbits, guinea pigs and mice was one of the most interesting parts of the zoo. It was really hands-on, and the kids even got to clean out the mouse cage and hold the little cuties!

 

 

 

 

 

I held the adorable little grey mouse whilst Hunter patted him carefully with one finger. It made my heart go all funny, holding that mouse, especially watching Hunter so happy with it. It reminded me of when I was younger and had pet mice. They were my favourite pet of choice and I had many, many mice over the years.. all the way into college when I still kept them as pets, probably horrifying all my dorm mates!

 

 

 

 

 

 

And obviously we saw all the standard stuff that all zoos have – elephants, giraffes, etc etc. But they were all in enclosures so I’m not posting any photos since that’s kinda boring and I’m sure you already know what those animals look like 😉

We had a lovely day though, and the kids sure did! It’s a shame Singapore’s weather isn’t about 5-10 celcius cooler.. it would make a trip to Singapore Zoo here (which is awesome) much more pleasant :X
