Miami’s largest and greenest Egg Safari at Zoo Miami, Apr. 20 and 21

Celebrate Easter the green way during Zoo Miami’s Egg Safari on Apr. 20 and 21,with 100,000 eco-friendly eggs made in the USA from plants that fully biodegrade.

From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., youngsters 12 and under can enjoy continuous egg hunts, animal egg safaris, music, crafts and games and more — all with a paid zoo admission. Zoo Miami members get in free, and at 10 a.m., an hour earlier than non-members, on both days.

Kids are sure to have a blast dancing to performances by Steve Gryb, “The Pied Piper of Percussion,” and taking photos with the Easter Bunny, plus music, games and prizes by The Hits 97.3 FM. Even the animals will enjoy their own special holiday enrichment treats, made just for them in Zoo Miami’s Animal Fun Factory where guests can help create these items on weekends and holidays.
