This deal is for all my Dallas/Ft Worth readers:

Dallas Zoo

Throughout February
$5 Admission Every Day

The Dallas Zoo is offering $5 discounted admission!

We do love the Dallas Zoo. You can feed the giraffes and the children’s zoo play area is amazing. My daughter would have stayed there playing all day….with slides, a rope spiderweb to climb and more. Don’t miss the carousel!!

Enjoy!
