A Hot One at West Palm Zoo


Photo-A-Day #2993

This photo is over a year later than the last one we took of Eva in the old truck. Check out our visit last year to West Palm Beach Zoo.

Since we have the membership to Capron Park Zoo we get some special admission prices at zoos all over the country. At the West Palm Beach Zoo we get half off for each of us so we go on each trip to Florida. Today we went with Grandpa Dano. We started with a few rides around the carousel for Eva. For a Carousel that is full of so many beautiful animal options like, sea dragon and hummingbird, Eva goes for the horse, on the inside. She was the only kid on the thing and so photos the first ride weren’t that great.

Smaller than Small: Squinkies Zinkies Review

Squinkies Zinkies

I received three Squinkies Zinkies packages to play with and review. Zinkies are the newest in the very prolific Squinkies line of toys. I became a fan of Squinkies when they started producing a Marvel line of figures. I then bought some of the hot wheels figures and for Eva I bought her the Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast Squinkies. She even has a set of Toy Story Squinkies as well. I love to display mine on my desk at work and across the top of my monitor. Eva likes to play with hers and act out parts of the movies.

With Squnkies Zinkies the small sized toys got even smaller and now come with little playsets to place the toys within and also included in the playsets are tweezers and a magnifying glass. Even with the small size there is still a decent amount of detail on the figures and they are cute to display. I gave Eva the choice of one of the sets to open. She chose the Tweetings Birdhouse. This one comes with cute little puppies, an alligator, a monkey, kitties and birds. There are 12 figures and they are all pretty cute and fun. Eva enjoys them. You can learn more about them below Continue reading Smaller than Small: Squinkies Zinkies Review
