The Parc Zoologique de Paris, located in the 12th arrondissement, near the Bois de Vincennes, is offering a host of activities to make your visit to the zoo even more festive than usual. Throughout the day, the zoo organizes workshops for children to make gifts that will then be given to the animals by the caretakers. You can also write your own letter to Santa, expressing your wishes for the animals, and drop it in the special letterbox on the zoo forecourt.

Every day at 2:30 p.m., get your quines ready for a game of Christmas bingo, with prizes to be won from the zoo store! Last but not least, don't miss the daily animal feedings, with commentary by the Parc Zoologique 's caretakers, or the scientific animations during which you'll learn all about the big and small residents of the most Parisian of animal parks.
