Families looking for some Halloween fun that doesn't involve the word "terrorfest," may want to check out the Los Angeles Zoo.
Once again, the zoo has been re-imagined for the little ones.
"Activities include fun performers, pumpkin carving, treats, crafts, music and creepy crawlers for a not-so-scary weekend that is suitable for the entire family," according to the zoo.
Plus, costumed kids, ages two though 12, get a dollar off admission.
"Boo at the Zoo" runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 25, 31, and Nov. 1
The Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens is located in Griffith Park at the junction of the Ventura (134) and Golden State (5) freeways. Admission is $13 for adults and $8 for children ages 2 to 12. This event is free with paid zoo admission. The zoo is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. For information, call (323) 644-4200 or visit the L. A. Zoo Web site at www.lazoo.org.
