My House, My Backyard and My Barn make up the fun and interactive area known as Habitat Hollow. As you make your way through the North American region of the Zoo, you will see large colorful letters describing the components of a habitat – food, water, shelter and space.

 

What looks like a regular house from the outside is quickly transformed into a magical storybook world simply by opening the door and entering the foyer.

 

Colorful, interactive exhibits are used to engage our youngest visitors, ages two to ten. Children may jump, climb, crawl and tumble as they explore the beauty of the marsh, forest and prairie habitats housed within My House.

 

The kitchen at My House provides our visitors with information on ways they can help the environment. 
 

Outside of My House there is still a lot to see and do at Habitat Hollow. Our message continues as visitors stroll along a path that runs side by side to a real prairie, wetland and forest habitat full of Ohio’s native species. Follow the path behind My House and you will end up in My Barn. Here visitors can have hands on interactions with the many animals that call My Barn home.
