I spent yesterday at the National Zoo with my good friend Colleen and her son Isaac.
We had a great day seeing nearly all the animals in the park, including the lions:
Most of these are cubs, although they're getting pretty big. This looked like a real-life Lion King scene. |
and the goats:
This is quite an elaborate goat playground. Where did all the money come from to build it? |
Oh. Question answered. |
Posing with Isaac in front of the goats. |
1. Surprise attack. Start spraying before the child knows what's going on. |
2. Distraction. Petting zoo animals work quite well. Zookies (zoo cookies) might also work. |
3. Speed. If all else fails, spray while running after the child. |
Definitely not my most "graceful" parenting moment, but at least the little boy didn't get a sun burn. We had lots of fun with you on our Zoo adventure!
