Once Upon a Zoo

Homeschool Program 2021-2022

In this year’s “Once Upon a Zoo” Toledo Zoo homeschool program, we will explore animals from myths, stories, and art. We will learn the science behind some of the world’s most captivating creatures and grow our skills in reading, writing, and creativity.

This three-season program starts in October and runs through mid-May 2022. Each month will focus on a new age-appropriate myth or story and the animals found in the story. Toledo Zoo’s homeschool program is a fun way to learn life science through group activities, live animals and Zoo visits! Program participants will be divided by age.

This year-long program includes monthly classes from October-April and the May Project Fair. Single class packages not available.
