The best gift we've yet received was a zoo membership. We started going for the exercise when Josie was just a few months old, and now (at two years) she heads straight for her favorite areas. Their new 'Predator Ridge' area is an awesome place to view lions and hyenas, and has a lot of good info about the animals. Having a membership makes the short visits kids prefer very economical, since we can just go for a picnic lunch and a few exhibits without feeling like we've paid a lot.
