Valley Zoo

A few weeks ago my little guy went to a birthday party at the Valley Zoo. Here are a couple pictures from the trip:

The first thing the kids did was decorate envelopes and drop a few meal worms in them, tape them up and put string through the envelopes. Then they were taken to the monkey enclosure where a staff member hung the envelopes from the trees and the monkeys would come along and tear open the envelopes and dig out the worms to eat. It was quite the show! This is my kid's envelope, you can actually see the silhouette of the meal worm inside the envelope!
