Our Zoo

The Staten Island Zoo is just down the street from our home. With a boy who loves animals as much as Matthew does, you can bet that we visit the zoo a lot. It is free on Wednesday afternoons, so we head over there for a couple of hours to make sure they are taking good care of our animal friends. We love the brown bats, otters, iguanas, crocodiles, scarlet macaws and peacocks, to name a few. The kids love feeding the farm animals and playing on the big animal sculptures. I love that they get to experience the zoo regularly and make such great memories. This is one thing we will definitely miss when we leave Staten Island.
