Key Information

Zoo Entrance and Animal Petting Area

Learning Point

  • Designing your zoo entrance is an important part of deciding on the style and colours you’ll use in your zoo. Consider how people will queue and enter, as well as any walls or barriers that might be needed to keep the animals and people safe in side. Consider what you would expect to see in a petting zoo or area, and consider how best to show that.

Project

  • Build the zoo entrance and create a petting area for the farm animals.
