Wonderful activity!!!
We had LittleOne Zoo bring the petting zoo and a pony ride to our church celebration, and everyone was so happy with the service! The animals were accessible for petting and children and adults really enjoyed that. The pony ride accommodated riders up to 75 lbs, so most of the young children were able to ride. Very well done on all counts, and a great value as well!

Contact local petting zoos to get quotes customized for your event.
