Zoo & Aquarium Gear

A zoo day with kids means a lot of walking, a lot of sun and a lot of snacks. These are the items that keep little ones happy from the first exhibit to the gift shop: sun protection, spill-proof snack cups, kid-sized binoculars and cameras, and a wagon or carrier for tired legs.
Most zoos allow outside food and wagons, but check your zoo’s rules before you go. Browse more than 250 zoo and aquarium guides for must-see animals and planning tips.
