World Animal Day at the Zoo!

On Saturday Kyler and I got some great Mommy-Son time. I had received an e'mail from the Toronto zoo about their "World Animal Day" events. When I saw this one I *knew* we had to go:

Photography Workshops:

Kids' Animal Photography Workshops**
Kids of all ages can learn to take pictures of animals with National Geographic photographer and Arctic Explorer Greg Marshall:

10:00 am to 10:30 am > Children ages 4 to 7*

I signed us up and off we went. We were a bit late getting there but we had a lot of fun!

We didn't learn as much about taking pictures as we did about how his job works but it was really cool. Seeing a bunch of kids in this room with cameras ranging from cell phones, to film ones, to point-and-shoots, to pros. It was incredible to watch them.

Kyler has been going through a shy phase so I sat with him on the ground and snagged some photos of my own. He also got a cool bag from the Zoo. There was some National Geographic things for kids, some flyer's, a stuffable bag (one that fits inside itself really small) all this was inside a reusable Toronto Zoo bag.

Here's the photos we got from it:































And K's photo taking ability:



We met up with Arnold and Quinton after and got to visit a few more zoo animals.
