To celebrate the spring season and Easter, the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium hosts their annual Spring celebration Eggs, Paws and Claws on April 15-16, 2022, from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Fun Eggs, Paws and Claws activities
Get ready for Easter with Eggbert’s Rolling Shell-A-Bration, and more Easter fun.
Go on a Egg-Splore-n-Find! Locate the hidden eggs around the Zoo and collect the corresponding card for each egg you find. Once you find all 9, stop by the Egg-Splore-n-Find Central for a prize.
Visit with the hosts of the event near Conservation Lake, including Eggbert, Shelley, Yolko, and Oh-No.
Animal Enrichment activities will be going on around the Zoo as animals hunt their own “eggs” to enjoy or play with. See the schedule on the website to find out where those activities will be happening.
Easter Bunny Photos
Let’s not forget about the Easter Bunny! Go to Lakeside Theatre for a unique photo experience with the Easter Bunny.
Professional photos are available for purchase starting at $19.99. You may take your own photos on your camera or phone instead. Reservations are recommended! There will be a stand-by line for guests without reservations, but wait times may be long.
Don’t forget to stop for other photos with the Easter Bunny’s friends at Bunny Hollow, including Pat the Bunny and Peter Rabbit.
