Around the world, animals are a part of many celebrations, songs and even dance moves. Party like it is 2019 as we meet animals integral to festive occasions throughout the world and have a celebration of Houston Zoo animals each day. Each camp will be an individual, single-day experience with different opportunities. You can send a camper for just one day or the entire week!
