Local Readers: Trick or Treat at Boo! At The Zoo

Thanks to the Ferrara Candy Company and Brookfield Zoo for inviting us to attend Boo! at the Zoo again this year.

Last year, we had the opportunity to attend Brookfield Zoo’s Boo! at the Zoo event for the first-time ever, and we had so much fun! You can take a peek at the video above to get an idea of how our day went. 🙂

Boo! at the Zoo is back again this year, and, once again, it’s presented by the Ferrara Candy Company at the Brookfield Zoo on October 21-22 and 28-29. The activities kick off at 10:00 AM and end at 4:00 PM each day.

Ferrara Candy Company will have four “Trick or Treat Stations” where they will be handing out candy and have a spot for your family to take a photo. And trust me, your kids will leave the zoo with PLENTY of candy to share. Our kids filled their buckets last year.
