❗️The Most Fun Spot at Brookfield Zoo is Actually Hidden in a Corner
Ali ForneyAli Forney
This is always the first place my children want to go! Its a fun interactive area. Its always clean so many learning experiences. From the animals they pull out to pet, the greenhouse they can water plants in, veternary play space to being a zoo director. Your child is going to love being in here. It is such a great learning experience that even the parents get involved. The only issue is...youll have a hard time getting them to leave.

The Hamill Family Play Zoo and The Pettting Zoo are both really great experiences for children. These give the children a hands-on approach and really focus on education. These are a must every time we go to the zoo. Certain days entry is even free to everyone, which is nice.

If you go to this part of the zoo know that you will be there for a good amount of time. Even my 15 and 16 year old boys love going to the play zoo. It...

This is a great place to let your toddler or young children discover everything for themselves. They have staff that explain and teach you everything there is to know about the animal of the day. They also have crafts and dress-up area. There is no food or drink in there and there's a place for stroller parking. However I have a newborn and it's quite difficult to Wrangler a two year old when you have a newborn in your hands so I use the stroller but they didn't say anything to me. They're...
