Children can go for a free day of fun and a teddy bear at the Los Angeles Zoo on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. thanks to “Travelodge’s The Great Sleepy Bear Swap.” Just be one of the first 100 kids to bring a gently-used stuffed animal to the zoo to donate to charity and receive one free kid’s admission and a new Sleepy Bear teddy bear.
Activities for everyone include face painting, drawing contests and giveaways such as bear temporary tattoos, National Geographic activity books and Sleepy Bear masks. A zoo keeper can educate children about bears and the role they play in the wild.
Los Angeles Zoo admission costs $17 for adults (ages 13-61); children cost $12 (Ages 2-12) $12.00, no ticket required for children under 2.
Los Angeles Zoo is at 5333 Zoo Drive in Los Angeles.

Kurt Geiger, UK's "Coolest Shoe Brand" voted by British Vogue, is now open in South Coast Plaza This highly anticipated second US location opened last week just in time for the festivities of Fashion's Night Out and boast to be the shopping destination for everything but the Dress.
Covering 1800 square feet, the new boutique unveils its signature Kurt Geiger shoe chandelier and is characterized by a center stage moment that creates an environment to suit the mood with equally intimate viewing areas for precious accessories as well as statement jewelry. Silhouettes without compromise change from high-rise to flat, exploring details that often identify classic British design including the chelsea, brogue and military boot. With punk in mind, classic styles are customized and trimmed to various extremes with studding, buckles, straps and jewels. Flaunting with masculinity, chunky loafers, brothel creepers and brogues sit pretty with regal elegant styles, brocades, lace and laser-cut detailing. Restraining the season with classic minimalism is the knee-high boot, the cut-out court and the chunkier mini heeled Mary-Janes, which are newly proposed and perfectly untouched.
Customers will receive an unparalleled combination of styling and service with a handpicked offering across the labels. For the fashionista looking for ‘Everything but the Dress’, Kurt Geiger creates the destination to shop.
