I’ve been trying to figure out where to take Charlie for Halloween this year. I ended up online and found Fort Worth & Dallas Zoo Halloween Activities. After looking through the list I decided I would like to to take Charlie Fort Worth Boo At The Zoo.
I saw Dallas Zoo was hosting Halloweekend At The Dallas Zoo as well. David. I sat down to discuss both events with and I believe we will go to Halloweekend At The Dallas Zoo because none of us have attended this event. Have you been here?
I would like to ask you a question have you ever visited the Dallas Zoo? If you have visited the Dallas Zoo what did you like or dislike about the Zoo and why? What did your children think of the Dallas Zoo? I have another question for you have you ever been to the Fort Worth Zoo? If you have visited both the Fort Worth Zoo and Dallas Zoo which Zoo did you prefer and why?
After visiting the Dallas Zoo are there other attractions nearby that you think my family should check out on our way home? Or restaurants we should visit while in Dallas?
Boo at the Zoo offers tricks and treats for the entire family

FORT WORTH, Texas – The Fort Worth Zoo’s family friendly Halloween celebration will continue as a daytime event, running from noon to 5 p.m. over two weekends — Oct. 19 to 21 and Oct. 26 to 28.
Boo at the Zoo, presented by Wells Fargo and Central Market, will feature many new carnival games, a tot spot, crafts and candy, and the most popular attraction: Zoo animals!
