10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Spring has sprung at the Toronto Zoo,
and it's the place to be this Easter Weekend!
This year we are
celebrating Easter in the Conservation Connection Centre with crafts,
colouring, egg-ducational activities and giant panda mascots who will be
dressed in their Easter best.
What is Easter without eggs? Visit one of
our many free Daily Keeper Talks to experience egg-citing enrichment,
plus keep your eyes peeled for festive eggs in various animal exhibits
all throughout the Zoo site.
These may be blue eggs, green eggs, spotted
eggs, animal print eggs, frozen popsicle eggs and gelatin eggs oh my!
Hop by of our Spring Awakening Volunteer Stations to discover the
amazing array of unconventional eggs found in the animal kingdom.
NEW! We want you to
get "Springy" with it! Find an Easter photo op inside one of the Zoo's
pavilions, take your photo and post it on Instagram #torontozooeaster. Have fun and be creative!
Feeling tired of chasing a bunny for the same ol' eggs? Join the Crocs Crew at the Toronto Zoo, and go on the search for all kinds of our spotted, scaly and feathery animals’ eggs!
This
Good Friday, Crocs will be putting a family-friendly twist on the
classic Easter Egg Hunt at the Toronto Zoo. Participants will be asked
to spot turtle eggs, python eggs, Komodo dragon eggs, and crocodile eggs
in order to receive a stamp in their Crocs’ Egg Hunt Passport. Children
who get three stamps or more will receive a special prize from Duke. Additionally, families who find the hidden golden egg in their passport will win a $100 Crocs gift card.
While
there, you can check out the cool Crocs styles on display, and scan the
QR codes to learn more. It’s sure to be a hoppin' (er, Crocin?) good
time.
IT'S A GIRL!
