Battle The Bug With Kleenex At The Philadelphia Zoo
Right before we went on vacation we got a real treat. We were invited to go to the Philadelphia Zoo to attend an event sponsored by Kleenex called “Battle the Bug“. What fun! I hadn’t been there since I chaperoned a school trip for one of my brothers, and RB and the boys had never been. Going to the zoo is something my parents did with me so I was excited to have the chance to go with my family.
On our way into the zoo we met Meghan from Mom Central, who was very sweet. Then we set off to see the zoo.
On our zoo safari we saw lots of animals. We saw giant turtles that were almost the size of a small car. Well, maybe not quite.
And the giraffes, which always fascinate me.
My favorites were the lions and tigers and bears. Oh my! The big cats and the polar bear are so beautiful.
The sea otters looked like they were having a good time. They were moving around so much I couldn’t even get a picture.
TJ’s favorite exhibit was the reptile house, probably because he knows it really freaks me out. Look at this nasty snake skin.
CJ’s favorite part of the trip was feeding the animals in the petting zoo.
And the ride on the zoo train.
In the early afternoon we had some lunch. I think the birds enjoyed it more than my children.
We then found the Kleenex “Battle The Bug” display.
The mission of the “Battle The Bug” program is to teach the importance of cleanliness and reducing germs in order to help prevent colds and the flu. Kleenex recently introduced Anti-Viral Tissues as another way to “battle the bug”. The tissues are just like regular Kleenex but the blue dotted middle layer contains active ingredients that kill 99.9% of cold and flu viruses. Great idea! Who doesn’t want a little extra help battling and preventing colds and the flu. Kleenex Anti-Viral Tissues are available at leading grocery, drug, club and mass merchandising stores .
We had a fun day together at the zoo. A big thanks to Kleenex and Mom Central for inviting us out!
Disclosure: Kleenex and Mom Central provided my family with tickets to visit the zoo and the information for this post.
