The Houston Zoo has brought back its usual Zoo Boo during the Month of October. Zoo Boo brings Halloween to Houston’s animals and visitors with several fun activities for kids and also encourage the children to dress up in their favorite Halloween attire.

            There is a pumpkin patch featured by Fiesta called the Fiesta Mart Pumpkin patch which allows children to obtain a small pumpkin to take home and also enjoy some Halloween crafts with the family. I recommend coming early to get your own pumpkin before the Fiesta area closes.

            Also bring trick or treat bags to carry the candy given out by volunteers along the Houston Zoo path.  Join the Halloween scavenger to get a special prize.

The Houston Zoo’s Zoo Boo 2011 will be going on through the rest of the weekends of October. For those who wish to avoid large crowds the Zoo has also opened Zoo on Fridays.

Besides Zoo Boo, the Houston Zoo has opened its new elephant expansion area for the public to enjoy the roaming herd. Dora & Diego’s 4D Adventure is also open.
