For the third year in a row, Animal Tales Extravaganza returns to the Wildlife Conservation Society’s Bronx Zoo every weekend from Saturday, April 21 through Sunday, June 30. Want some more great news? Animal Tales Extravaganza is included with your zoo admission!
Each weekend of Animal Tales Extravaganza includes a variety of activities for families and children. The zoo’s Dancing Crane Pavilion will be transformed into an intimate story time corner, presented by Plum Organics. Zoo-goers can take a break and read from a wide variety of animal-themed books from Simon & Schuster, Candlewick Press, and Hyperion. Children can then stage their own animal tale with a puppet they create at the Bright Horizons Early Education & Preschools crafts area.
This opening weekend kicks off with a Meet & Greet with Yo Gabba Gabba! and Storybook Fun with Curious George!
