First time visit at the Petting Farm at Domino's. We took a Grandbaby for an outing today. It was a…read morebit chilly (just above 40 degrees and the wind didn't help matters much). As many times as I had driven past Domino's along Route 23, I never knew there was a petting farm nestled back in there! Very well kept, animals' pens were clean, animals all looked very healthy and well cared for. The grounds were also well maintained. Sheep, horses, goats, rabbits, chickens, peacock, donkey, alpaca, geese, etc. In various pens inside and outside of the barns. Animals outside of the buildings also had coverage areas built for them. An aged stationary tractor is on display for children to climb up onto the seat and play "Farmer John" for a while. There was also a playground area as well as an oversized doll house for children to experience. A poll barn is used as a gathering center for birthday parties, etc. Great idea for children to go and experience farm animals up close and personal. Fun afternoon.

There were a ton of goats, sheep, chickens, and bunnies to feed and pet. Several very excited…read morellamas and alpacas also enjoyed carrots, as well as one cow. And a very sweet kitty who only wanted pets and rubs. The ponies were cute and fat and the pigs were...pigs. The carrots are clearly overpriced but they bring great joy.

Gosh, this was a blast from the past. Couldn't go to East Lansing without stopping by Potter's…read morePark. I used to take my two oldest children here frequently. It's a great little Zoological Park! It's accredited by the AZA and offers amenities like stroller rentals, a quiet room. The hours depend on the time of year and admission cost is based on if you live in the county or not. They do offer discounts for senior citizens and military personnel. They maintain over 300 animals with popular exhibits like penguins, lions, and giant anteaters. They provide wheelchairs, strollers, and wagons for rent, plus a quiet room and sensory-friendly bags. This zoo is one of Michigan's oldest continuously operated zoos, with a history dating back over 100 years. My husband and I found it very enjoyable.

We had a fantastic day walking around the zoo this past weekend. Admission was only 6$ per person,…read moresince it's off season and honestly felt like such a steal! Bathrooms were spotless, and we got to see almost all the animals available. I gave 4 stars, instead of 5 because all of the food amenities were closed which i found odd. I understand it being slower in the winter months, but people still need to eat & grab a beverage. All in all, we really enjoyed our time here and would return in the future!

It was a great way to spend the day with family without breaking the bank. Highly recommended!!read more

We hadn't been to the Detroit Zoo in probably 30 years. I was blown away by the improvements…read morethey've accomplished in those 30 years. Yes, it's a long time and I realize that fact, but still... the improvements from then till now are really fantastic. For starters on navigating the zoo, there are map boards located throughout your walk and there's also a QR code reader on the boards so you can access the zoo app from your phone. As you traverse down the paths, there are food stops for the hungry kiddos and adults and plenty of little snack and sweets stations throughout the zoo and plenty of restrooms as well so no worries there. There are benches spaced throughout in case you need to take a little rest along your adventure walk. Most of the animals were out midday and that was our concern that it might be nap time for a lot of them. But we were very fortunate and saw almost everything we set out to see. We'll definitely have to go back because we didn't quite see everything we wanted to see. The penguin exhibit was fantastic. It's an arctic wonderland with a below ground level walkway so you can watch them swimming past as you walk along. The chimpanzees were a popular attraction and both kids and adults loved watching them playing and grooming each other and taking care of the young ones inside the air conditioned building. The air conditioned buildings with the indoor viewing are the best, especially on hot days so you can cool down as you watch the animals in their habitats The zoo itself is neat and clean with staff dispersed throughout in case you have questions or need help. They were actively working on new exhibits while we were there and we're looking forward to seeing these new additions that will definitely add to the fun zoo experience. Some exhibits have small entrance fees that aren't included in the zoo ticket price but they're worth it. It took us 3 hours to make it all the way around and that included a lot of stops and looking at and watching all of the awesome animals but next time we'll allow four because at the end just before closing we were rushing. From 30 years ago till now, the zoo is worthy of 5 stars with the way it has grown with the times. Get some Vitamin Z as one of their old commercial jingles suggest!

I went to sealife because I loveee Aquariums. I didn't have high expectations because I've been to…read morethe one in American Dream mall & it was small. Now, for little kids maybe under 6 it's very nice. This day there was some sort of water main break and the whole mall didn't have running water so no restaurants were open & the bathrooms weren't running either. So naturally, the touch tank was closed since you couldn't wash your hands before or after. The animal crossing is a new popup there but it was only stamps as you saw the characters. Of course I participated because I'm a big kid. Besides that it wasn't anything special. However, I did learn that Dory from Finding Nemo is a venemous fish. I had no ideas.

The amount of food given for $10 a person is a decent value. You just need to call at least a day before to get it and it always included a dessert too. I especially like this option for things that I am not sure if the kids will like but to cook it from scratch would cost me a lot if no one eats it (like their st Paddy's dinner). During the summer and Fall we come here at least a handful of times for different weekends. They have a garage type weekend, blueberry weekend, etc. I heard they are even adding in a ceramic painting/crafting nights. They have a cooler full of fresh apples (all types) and veggies all at a decent price. Owners and staff are always nice and helpful.
