Nanny to Mommy

This past Friday, my family and I were invited to Zoo Atlanta to experience IllumiNights at the Zoo: A Chinese Lantern Festival presented by Georgia Power, with additional support from Beacon Sponsor PNC. Zoo Atlanta has partnered with Hanart Culture to bring this incredible new experience to Atlanta. Zoo passes are my favorite experience gift idea that I have recommended for years because it is a gift that keeps on giving all year long.

IllumiNights opened to the public on Monday, November 22, 2021, and continues through Sunday, January 16, 2022. After dark, guests will explore the Zoo, transformed – full of awe-inspiring vistas highlighting the wonder, beauty and diversity of the natural world, from the savanna to the sea to the skies, from the depths of the rainforest to the lights of the Arctic Circle.

As a parent, you want your kids to enjoy and make the most of their youthful years. And so you strive to keep them grounded by limiting the time they spend using gadgets and urging them to spend more time outdoors to socialize with others or immerse themselves in nature. Some parents may take their children for backyard picnics and walks in the park. Meanwhile, others tend to be more adventurous and allow their kids to tag along when they’re backpacking, hiking, or going camping.

However, one activity that most parents may have never tried with their kids before is visiting a farm. Read on to find out why this particular option is worth considering.
