Last week we attended a super fun event at the Santa Ana Zoo called “Boo at the Zoo”. It was a a “Merry not Scary” family friendly event where everyone was encouraged to come in costume! It was a very safe place for children (ages 2-12) to trick-or-treat for Halloween enjoying goodies from 10 Stations.
Boo at the Zoo Features
- Ten Prize Stations on the Trick-or-Treat Trail

- “Teen Scream” Haunted House (a separate area, included in the price of admission)

There was so much to do, from visiting all of the stations, to watching the monkeys jump around to taking photos at all of the cute photo stops. They had large wooden cut outs where the kids can put their face in for some silly fun!
Also, the trick or treat stations were incredible! Instead of giving out a ton of candy, they gave out really useful things like books, crayons, toys, protein bars and even my favorite, noosa yoghurt!
