A day at the New Zoo

This week we went to Green Bay's New Zoo. This is a smaller zoo but I really love their feature of feeding the giraffe's. :) My daughter loves giraffe's and this allows her to get right up in their faces and feed them and touch them. I never got to do that when I was a little girl. Recently they just started a program to feed the pelican's too but this year we did not do that. Selah had no interest in the Pelican's but could have stayed by the giraffe's all day long. Their is also a petting zoo within the zoo and you can feed them. Do you have a local zoo that you enjoy? I am still hoping to get over to Minnesota to visit the Minnesota Zoo or Como Zoo. Como Zoo is free and very nice but Minnesota Zoo has a IMAX and that would be fun too. What is your favorite zoo? I have never been to Madison's Zoo and that is closer so maybe we will try that one. :)

Here are a few of the captured moments.

Our zoo recently added that feature and my daughter loves it! Sometimes she wants me to feed them for her, but she always wants to watch at least.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words. These are broken down into six sets of five words. The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game. Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory. Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not). Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God.
