Alphabet Zoop is a educational program based around a weekly letter and animal. Each session consists of a picture story book, a song, a craft activity and a visual or tactile animal experience. The primary aim of this program is to provide a rich, stimulating environment where a child and their caregiver can learn together through music, movement and kinaesthetic activities and develop a strong connectedness with nature.
Alphabet Zoop is available to Zoo members only. If you would like to book a place for our next available program, please visit here

OH MY WHAT BIG TEETH YOU HAVE!

Have you ever wondered how many teeth an Elephant has or what it would feel like to touch them?

Today we learnt that Elephants have 4 molar teeth at one time and replace their teeth up to 6 times in their life. They also have 2 incisors which are their tusks. Elephants have ridges on the top of their teeth which are used to grind up their food.

Can you find the Elephant tooth in the photo? It looks a little bit like the sole of a shoe!
