Last Saturday, Lily and her family went to the zoo. The weather was sunny and warm, perfect for a day outside. They packed sandwiches, water, and some fruit fora picnic.
At the zoo, Lily was excited to see her favorite animals— pandas! She learned that pandas mostly eat bamboo and can sleep for more than 12 hours a day. "They are so cute and fluffy!" Lily said with a big smile.
Next, they visited the lions. The lions were resting in the shade. Lily's little brother, Tom, said, "Look at their big paws! They must be very strong." Their mom explained, "Lions are called the ' king of the jungle' because they are powerful hunters"
After lunch, the family walked to the bird area. There were colorful parrots, peacocks, and flamingos. The parrots could say simple words like"hello." Lily laughed when a parrot said, "Good morning!"
Before going home, they saw the giraffes. Lily noticed how tall they were. Her dad said, "A giraffe' s neck can be up to six feet long! That's taller than most people."
On the way back, Lily felt a little tired, but she was happy. She told her parents,"Today was so much fun. I learned a lot about animals."
