Education

Go on a worldwide learning safari--without leaving Houston!

For teachers, parents and children alike, the Houston Zoo is a great place to combine learning with fun. The programs are educational, the animals interesting, and the Zoo staff is always ready to make your educational experience both wild and wonderful.

Whether it's during your family visit to the Zoo, a Zoo camp experience, or an experience off-site with our ZooMobile, we're always working to promote conservation awareness and action—and thereby cultivate in everyone we touch an appreciation of the natural world and its many wild inhabitants.

Escape to an entirely different learning environment. We invite you to take a closer look at the many learning programs and opportunities the Houston Zoo has to offer.

Teachers and Schools - Leap into Learning through professional development, field trips, classes, homework help and more.

Individuals and Families - From infants through adults, the Zoo offers activities to amaze and inspire you.

Zoo to You: Outreach and Zoomobiles - Daily adventures for all ages and audiences-schools, libraries, hospitals, community groups and other organizations.

Scouts and Youth Groups - Enjoy a Zooper array of activities both day and night.
