Today Belle and I along with my mother were able to spend the day at the zoo! We started the day off with breakfast and crafts, followed by a private feeding of special biscuits to the giraffes. It was such a great experience. Belle would clap her hands everytime they took a biscuit out of her hand with their long sticky tounges. We went with the Arizona school for the blind, which Isabelle gets her vision therapy through. This was the first activity we have attended and we cant wait for more. All the parents were really nice, and it was a good experience to be around other parents who understand what it's like to have a child with special needs. After the giraffes we split up and got tickets for some of the different activities around the zoo. First we took Belle on the carousel. It was still really early so she got the whole thing to herself! Then we took a train tour of the zoo. Belle liked it so much she fell asleep!! Then we spent the next three hours walking around the zoo and looking at all of the animals. We finished up with the string ray exhibit, where you can go in and touch them as they swim around. Belle didn't really care for that, maybe in a couple years she will be more into it. How did all of you spend your Fridays?!
