Philadelphia Insectarium and Butterfly Pavillion

January 11, 2020 By Becca Leave a Comment

Philadelphia Insectarium and Butterfly Pavillion

Our house is an unofficial zoo. I think you achieve that status once you have acquired more than five different kinds of animals. Ok, I made that up, but we do have a bunch of pets. We are animal lovers through and through. Aside from that, I’m always on the hunt for rainy day activities […]

It’s a much more intimate experience and because of that, you have the opportunity to encourage your kids to spend more time with each animal rather than jumping […]

Plumpton Park Zoo

Have I told you before that I have made it my mission to visit every zoo and aquarium within a 2 hour radius? Well if I haven’t, consider that my official declaration. I think I might not be too far off from accomplishing that goal actually! Plumpton Park Zoo has been crossed off the list […]

Kent County Recreation Center Trail

Kent County Recreation Center Trail

June 6, 2020 By Becca Leave a Comment

If you're looking for a quick stroll or a new place for the kids to practice riding their bike, then the 1 mile loop at the Kent County Recreation Center is worth a visit! The smooth, wide path is also stroller and handicap accessible which is tough to find in Delaware. We visited here to … [Read More...]
