Monday Prompt: A Day at the Zoo or Aquarium

Welcome to your weekly journal prompt! When is the last time you spent a day at the zoo or aquarium?

A day trip to the local zoo or aquarium is a good way to learn more about our animals, especially if you have a Spirit Animal that has come to you. Take a nature journal and draw what you see, ask questions in your journal about the animals. Find a bench and ‘sit with them’, letting your mind wander and wonder at the lessons they can reflect back to us.

Grab your favorite journal, a pen, and make yourself a cuppa—let’s jump in!

1. If you could visit any zoo or aquarium in the world, which one would it be and why?
2. Research an endangered species and write about why its conservation is important.
3. If you could spend a day volunteering at a zoo or aquarium, what would you choose to do?
4. Research an animal you’ve always been fascinated by and write a short biography about it.
5. Imagine yourself exploring a zoo or aquarium in another country. Describe the sights, sounds, and experiences you encounter.
6. Write about a memorable encounter you’ve had with an animal in the wild or at a zoo/aquarium.
