Taking baby to the zoo?

[bobcat]

I've heard amazing things about our state's zoo, and I'd like to take baby girl before we move this summer. I'm thinking this spring before it gets too terribly hot. Am I insane? Is this a terrible idea? Will she be able to enjoy it at all at this age? (She'd be 7 or 8 months.)

She will enjoy looking at everything in the moment even if she doesn't remember it. You'll have great pictures to show. Go and have fun !

I want to take DS to the zoo soon too. I know he won't remember it. But he loves looking at everything so I know he will enjoy it. So I don't think you are crazy at all!

We plan on taking our lo to the zoo this spring. As others have said I don't think he will remember it but in the moment will enjoy it. We plan to take lots of pictures and record any moments to share in the future.

I took Ella when she was about a year. She was interested but not like animated about it yet.

I am going to get a membership to a local zoo this summer. I would just think about getting something you can back carry in. A lot of things can't be seen from stroller height and its a long time to be holding/lifting baby

I say go for it...even if she doesn't remember, you will.

Go for it! DH and I are all about the zoo. We went there for our second date, he proposed there, and we now have a zoo membership. Neither one of us can wait to take DD for the first time this spring. Our zoo does something special for Mother's Day, and I've already told DH that's what I want to do this year. I'm hoping to get there before then, but it'll depend on the weather.

Sounds fun to me! Not crazy.
I can't wait to take DS to zoo & aquarium. He has just recently started really watching the dog and laughs at her. The zoo sounds great

We took LO to the San Diego Zoo when we were there on vacation. He loved just looking at all the people and plants and animals. It was fun and we got some cute pics I love the zoo!!
