Little Nature Lovers ΖΟΟ CAMP

for children aged 2-6 years old

10am-1pm daily

 

Latest research shows that children that come into direct contact with nature at least 2 hrs per week have many benefits, such as improvement of mental and physical health!  This process can become even more beautiful when they are experiencing wildlife with their parents in a safe environment like the zoo. 

 

Thus, every first Wednesday of each month (see zoo camp calendar here for details and registration), your children transform into young ecologists exploring and discovering plants and animals next to our experienced education staff.

We will celebrate Reptile Awareness Day on Sunday 18th October

 

Reptile fans all over the world can celebrate this special day close to this amazing group of animals, by reptile watching in the wild, volunteering to care for a reptile (e.g., in a rehabilitation center) and visiting them with the whole family at the zoo!  Unfortunately, so many reptiles are threatened due to habitat loss and in the long term seriously threatened by climate change.

 

Find out all about them here on Sunday 18th Oct.  Ηelp us feed the giant tortoises* and meet & greet the reptiles at the Park / interactive tour starts @12.30 at the Giant Tortoises.  Coloring leaflets will be given to children.

 

*Due to COVID measures, children assisting our zoo keeper to prepare the toirtoise food will depend on number of persons attending the event. Wearing masks are a pre-requisite.
