DS’s 8th birthday

[helen650]

Not really a AIBU but posting for some ideas.
My DS’s bday in September he’ll be 8.
We live in Cornwall. We’ve spent the summer holidays out and about here having a lovely time. For his birthday I was hoping to do something special as he won’t have a party this year. He loves animals so much. So something animal related would be amazing.
We’d travel a few hours in the car & happily
stay overnight.
We’ve got 2 other DC (10&5)
If anyone has any grand ideas it would be great!

Hope you get some replies, Happy birthday to your DS!

My kids are not animal lovers but they love theme parks like peppa pig World etc.

Longleat?

Paignton zoo?
Or
Falconry experience?

Or monkey world in Dorset?

At Chessington you can stay in the hotel and have views of the animals from your hotel.

Find somewhere that does a Zookeeper For A Day. I know they do at Dudley but there’s probably one much nearer.

Bristol Zoo - see the new baby gorilla?
They do Animal Experiences bristolzoo.org.uk/visitor-information/animal-experiences

Oh, Experiences currently suspended - sorry.
I wonder if they might start again in September though?
