Kids love animals so why not take a day trip to Longleat Safari Park and teach your little ones about the more exotic species of the animal kingdom

Liz Quaker, 35, and her partner James, 37, took son Josh, 3, to Longleat in Wiltshire
“Josh loves watching the animals on the TV show Animal Park, filmed at Longleat, so we thought it’d be perfect for a birthday treat. There was lots to do, and so many animals, from Josh’s favourite meercats to the tigers.
After driving round the safari area we had a picnic and played in the hedge maze. Then the Animal Adventure attraction with porcupines Brussell and Sprout, and a guinea pig village, let us get hands-on with some furry (and not so furry) friends!”
