Zoo Crew (Parent and Tot)

Looking for something to connect yourself and your preschooler with nature? Our fun and interactive program for children ages 2 through 5 years old is just that.  

Fall/Winter Zoo Crew is now full!

Thanks to everyone who submitted their registration form online for the fall/winter session of our Zoo Crew Parent and Tot Program!  Due to the popularity and limited capacity of this program, spaces were filled based in order of date and time stamp email receipt of submitted registration forms.  Watch for registration details to be posted in June for our summer session.

2023-24 theme "Get to Know the Zoo Near You"

This year’s theme is “Get to Know the Zoo Near You” where we’ll be discussing the goals and missions of Riverview Park and Zoo! 

The overall outcome for this theme is that local residents, parents, and children of the program, grasp a different perspective of what Riverview Park and Zoo does by getting to know more about some of our beloved animals and what goes on behind-the-scenes here at their local zoo.  

Each of our six sessions will be based specifically on our animals, their enrichment, and facts about them, and include a new book, craft, song, activity, and animal encounter.

Schedule

Zoo Crew programs are offered each year, with both summer sessions and fall/winter sessions.
