Berlin Zoo |
It wasn't a very nice day, as in it was looking like it was going to rain, the good thing is that it meant it wasn't packed full. It did indeed rain, however, once the rain passed it was fine and we managed to continue enjoying the zoo.
What the kids enjoyed was how close they could get, yet still be safe! :D

My cheeky monkeys! Remember to make outings fun! |
The zoo has several feeding times so you can watch the animals being fed, but you need to organize yourself to be in the right place at the right time. We managed to see the Gorila's being fed lots of vegetables and laughed at how one of them grabbed his 'lot' and ran to hide in a corner to eat in peace! It was a treat to see the kids excited! On our first trip we decided to also watch the sea lion show, a smaller version of a Sea Life show hahahaha. It was full when we arrived, so if you want to have a great view or sit, then arrive early. The kids loved the show, it was of course in German, but you don't really need to know what they are saying, it's just fun to watch the sea lion do it's tricks and get fed lots of fish!

Now with the annual pass we will try and go back and do other feeding times for the kids to watch!
There is also a petting zoo with goats and sheep, but it was being refurbished in time for the summer holidays, so we'll have to go back for that!
However, even with all the animals, and there are lots, what my kids loved most was the playground and I've got to say, this is one of the best we've ever seen. (remember it wasn't a really nice day, that's why it is quite empty in the first 4 photos...then we went back on a nice day and it was already busy) There is also a huge wooden boat to play in, but the photo wasn't great, so I'll have to get another one when we go back (which we have been!)

Hours of fun to be had here |


Finally, the zoo has a few places to eat (you have 10% discount if you have the annual pass), debit cards can be used only over €10. There are a few ice cream trolleys around the zoo too. My tip if you have the annual pass- go after lunch and take a light snack, it will save you money!
Definitely a fun day out for the family with a great play area for the kids!!
Oh and to leave the zoo you have to pass through the shop- clever zoo! I, however, am an even cleverer mum and have trained my kids very well into looking and not buying hahahaha! But we still have fun!
