This year we decided to check out Zoo Lights because we love the holidays. We knew the concept... Visit the zoo after dark to see some holiday lights.
Guys. Zoo Lights was so much cooler than I was anticipating!
Once you get inside the zoo, the magic begins. We started by visiting the light show that plays every 30 minutes. Lights dance to music from The Greatest Showman, which instantly won my kiddos over.
After the light show, head over to the children's area, where kids can run and play. My girls got to meet a turtle in the reptile encounter area as well as burn some energy climbing and playing on the slides and climbing structures. There is even a spot to roast s'mores... Yum!
After playing for some time, we continued wandering the zoo, enjoying the lights and music. Our next stop was the Merry and Bright Pathway of Light, where we stopped for a cute photo op in Santa's Sleigh. The girls also got to do a cute craft- drawing with chalk on black paper to create "glowing" masterpieces. They loved it!
The next stop was the LED animal sculptures, which were every bit as cool as they sound!
Our final stop was the Winter Wonderland at the Grove. Guys... We could have spent hours here. Picture-worthy light displays are everywhere. Santa is there. Employees walk around in glowing bird costumes (I can't even do justice to the coolness of these walking costumed-characters). Kids can roam and play in the Grove and paint cute nature-inspired ornaments. There are musical performances. There's a beer garden and a food truck. And there's an awesome ambiance in the air that really gets you ready for the holidays!
We highly recommend this holiday experience. Parking is $10, and admission is $15 for adults and $12 for kids (3 and under are free). This is a must-do for the 2018 holiday season!
(I was not compensated in any way for this review. I just really loved our time here and wanted to share it with my readers!)
