Ezri in the Hamill Family Play Zoo. This is the area where kids can pretend to be zoo vets. She is using a ball syringe on the nose of an armadillo. She also wanted to use it on her own nose, but I convinced her the armadillo was a better idea.
We spent quite awhile playing with a photo booth that would put an animal border around your photo. It had buttons to push and a curtain to play peek-a-boo. I even decided to give in and buy a photo after 20 minutes of playing in the photo booth. The photo isn’t great (a low pixel photo of Ezri and I with a lion border) but the photo booth play time was worth it. Ezri liked it when the booth talked to us and the buttons made noises which made it worth having fed the machine money.
This is her happily sitting on the booth bench.
Behind the Play Zoo, there is a sandbox. This was Ezri’s first time in a sandbox which she really enjoyed. The sand was a bit damp from the rain, shoveling it and crushing it were no less fun for its dampness.
The sandbox is surrounded by lilacs which smelled great and were a good bonus.
Two things that excited Ezri very much this zoo visit were this dustpan & hand broom:
and these goslings:

Great photo essay. Ezri knows — as everybody knows — damp sand is the best.
What is with Ezri’s obsession with cleaning supplies? For your sake, I hope she doesn’t grow out of it!
Sure, she really likes brooms and dusters, but she also LOVES dirt and mess making.
