Fun In Belize With Kids

Yep, the picturesque sunsets and beaches give the place a romantic air about it, but those are not the only things that Belize can offer as it also has various activities that the whole family can enjoy.

Okay, so you’ve seen zoos in your locality or in any other place that you’ve visited, but for sure this particular zoo will be one of the (if not “the”) most memorable one that you’ve gone to. So what sets apart Belize zoo from the others? Well, for one, they take care of animals which are endemic to Belize, so you get to see a collection of animals that live and thrive only in the place. These include gibnuts (looks like an overgrown mouse that can grow about two feet long) and coatimundis (a racoon like animal that can measure up to four feet from snout to tail). There are other animals there of course like pumas and birds like macaws. However, it is not just the animals that makes the zoo peculiar, but the zoo itself. Accordingly, you may find that there are more animals walking around the place than there are in the cages. These animals are not part of the zoo’s displays, but rather visitors from nearby forests. So don’t be surprised when you see and bush rabbit hopping in front of you or a snake slithering past the bushes and trees.

So the next time you go to Belize, don’t just think about relaxing in the beaches and watching the kids play in the water. There are many fun things to see and explore in the country, perfect for the little adventurer in your family.
