I think he's still too young for the Bronx Zoo. It's an awful lot of walking for a 3 yr. old. Your kids will enjoy it! and please, take my word for it, make sure you check out the Gorilla exhibit!! If I had a chance to go back, I would spend my whole day there. It is very near a snack bar where you can sit and eat lunch , or just rest. They had baby gorillas in the nursery when my hubby and I went about 6 yrs. ago. Let me know if they still have that female gorilla there, who stands perfectly upright, and behaves very humanoid!! No lie, I thought it was a woman dressed up in a gorilla costume!! We spent too little time there because it was on our way out, and my husband was getting tired. This was about a year before he passed. We went at his insistence for some reason, I'll never know. Glad we did!
