CLEVELAND, OH — KidsDays returns to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo on June 23 and June 24. The two-day event will feature shows from the Thriller BMX team, a customized, mini-golf course, the Junior Superhero Academy, a kids dance party and so much more.

On Saturday and Sunday, PBS Ideastream characters will be hanging out and meeting families. From 11 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on June 23, Daniel Tiger and Katerina Kittycat will both be at the zoo. On June 24, from 11 a.m. to 3:45 p.m., Arthur and Clifford the Big Red Dog will make an appearance.

Plus, there will be plenty of animals taking part in a variety of specially scheduled animal enrichment activities at the zoo. Families will be able to feed a giraffe at the Ben Gogolick Giraffe Encounter in the African Savanna, or see the brand new Asian Highlands destination, which is home to snow leopard cubs, red pandas, and the takin, a new species to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.

Throughout both days, there will also be interactions with superhero characters at the Welcome Plaza, arts and crafts at the Primate, Cat & Aquatics building, the touch-a-truck at Monkey Island Picnic Area, Junior Superhero Academy at the Ballarat Theatre and Professor Wylde's Animal Show at Savanna Theatre.
