Early Childhood Pop-Up: Little Critters

Little Critters Plastic is everywhere! Join us at our Little Critter stations to learn how plastic waste effects animals and humans here in Kentucky and around the world. We’ll play games focused on recycling to earn a special sticker! These stations will be in the MetaZoo or the HerpAquarium on Wednesday afternoons in the spring. Price FREE with Louisville Zoo membership or admission About Early Childhood Pop-ups The fun will be popping up this spring and summer at the Zoo! Perfect for young learners, these new pop-up programs invite families and their children to play, observe and learn in new ways all while visiting the Zoo! Use your imagination during free play in the Cub House, gather around for a story reading, think like a zookeeper with animal activity stations or go on a Litter Critter quest. Pop up programs are FREE with membership or admission to the Zoo. For a full list of details and available sessions, visit our website.
