Reviews
The Brandywine Zoo is a wonderful place to bring your toddlers. They can run around, because it isn't crowded. It doesn't have many exhibits, so if you're looking for a large selection of animals, this isn't for you. It's just a nice, cheap place to let the kids run free. The animals are generally out where you can see them, so you won't be disappointed. It only takes about 30 minutes from start to finish. That is why it's very inexpensive. We just walked the whole place a few times. If it had more exhibits, I would give it a higher rating, for family fun.

Wasn't expecting much in early March. About half of the animals were gone and considering this is a really small zoo I pretty much saw goats and lamas for $5 (adult rate this time of year).

Small and sweet zoo with polite staff. It's undergoing some construction right now but should improve it even more. There are several exhibits with smaller animals, a petting zoo with goats, a snack bar area and a seating area. This is geared for a short visit and for the younger kids. Make a longer day out of using the park by the river or the large playground just walking distance away.

Small but nice place to take the family. You can see the whole place in a hour. The staff were all over talking to people about the animals. Look into the yearly pass . So you can bring the kids for quick trips The is a nice park in front on it on the creek/river.

Small family oriented zoo. Love letting my toddler run around and explore. Staff is friendly and attentive! They have great programs for children during the week and on the weekends! Once a month in the summer they have a family fun night with $1 admission!
