I bring my son to the zoo about once per month because he absolutely loves it and we have a membership so it doesn't cost a lot of money (he gets in free because he's under 3 so I just have a single membership). I decided to make things interesting this time and make it into a scavenger hunt. I printed up a page of animal pictures, laminated it, punched a hole in it, and put in on a lanyard. As we went through the zoo he would "circle" the animals as we saw them. He LOVED it! A few people wanted to see what he was up to and asked to see his stickers (I don't know why, but everybody thought they were stickers). By mid-day my super shy son was walking up to random people showing him his list like Wayne and Garth in Wayne's World.
