Cleveland Metroparks Zoo

The third annual KidsDays event returns this Saturday, June 24 and Sunday, June 25 with more non-stop fun and games than ever before. Kids and adults alike will enjoy playing, putting and dancing around Cleveland Metroparks Zoo along with all of their favorite animals. Extra entertainment without any extra cost. All KidsDays activities are included in the price of regular admission.

Catch one of three daily shows by the Thriller BMX team, take a swing on the customized B.A. Sweetie 3-hole miniature golf course, visit the mobile gaming trailer, make your way to the Universal Studios Minion Tattoo Parlor, and shake a tail feather at the kids DJ dance party. On Saturday, come meet Daniel Tiger, Curious George and other WVIZ / PBS Ideastream Education KIDS characters from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Watch over a dozen animals, including lions, cheetahs, tigers and grizzly bears take part in special scheduled animal enrichment activities. During your visit, feed a giraffe at the Ben Gogolick Giraffe Encounter in the African Savanna and get nose-to-nose with Amur tigers at the newest addition to the Zoo, Rosebrough Tiger Passage. While you're there, learn how you can secure a future for wildlife with KeyBank ZooKeys.
