Building Adventures at the Lehigh Valley Zoo

Building Adventures at the Lehigh Valley Zoo

Community involvement is at the heart of what we do at Tuskes Homes. We’re proud to share that our excavating team is kicking off an exciting new project: building a brand-new Children’s Activity Area designed to inspire education, adventure, and fun!

The Children’s Activity Area will be an exciting new way for schools and visitors to learn about the amazing work the Lehigh Valley brings to our community. From state-of-the-art facilities to “good old-fashioned fun,” the goal is to invite more opportunities to see the conservation efforts the Zoo undertakes in advocating for and protecting species worldwide. Not only will the project support the animals, but it will also update old exhibits and create new ones.

The project will be completed in several phases, each bringing new features and experiences to the zoo for visitors of all ages. This first phase includes a playground designed with a focus on accessibility so all children can play together in a safe and inclusive environment. This provides not only activities for the kids but also some much-needed rest for their caretakers. There will also be the Fred & Anne Jaindl Barnyard, where visitors will be able to interact with the adorable and friendly animals year-round.

The Children’s Activity Area construction is set to open in the Summer of 2027, and there is much more work to do! The upcoming phase includes the Isaacman Family Education Center which will host classes, groups, and become the center for education programs. The final two phases are the most exciting: the much-awaited splash pad to cool down during the summer and continue to be active as well as a new Marketplace with food and retail spaces.

To stay up to date on the progress of the Children’s Activity Area (and contribute to this amazing project) visit the Lehigh Valley Zoo’s website for news and announcements.

The Tuskes family and Tuskes Homes team are proud to be a part of creating this new Children’s Activity Area at the Lehigh Valley Zoo. After all, We Live Here, Too!
