    My 8-yr old daughter & her friend enjoyed every aspect of Starry Safari. We intended to be there for a couple of hours and stayed until closing. We watched the male zebra being fed & heard a talk about his species, including the 2 new baby zebras. As an adult, I even enjoyed a go at hula-hooping! We closed with the girls learning about creatures who live in the water & they were thrilled to make a collage coral reef. Plenty to do -- plenty to slide & splash about -- and the real bonus -- not overly crowded!! Collapse

    Great festive fun and cheap. Felt in the holiday spirit for the first time in 14 years since I moved to Arizona. My daughter 2 years old was asking for more, she loved the lights with the music, and the talking giaraffe was great she talked about him and how he sneezed on mommy for days. Collapse
