One of the great benefits of home schooling is that you get to choose your own schedule, control your time, and avoid staying in line with long crowds and basically, just enjoy and have fun. Upon running an errand to Sucat last weekend, We decided to drop by The Lost Eden in Sucat, Paranaque since it was along the way and We had the entire afternoon to ourselves.
Though it would have been nicer to call ahead of schedule so their staff could have prepared the place and programs. But this would have taken away the element of surprise and spontaneity. Plus going on field trips during off-season's gives you the rare privilege of enjoying the entire place all by yourselves. "The Lost Eden" which is located along Sucat road Dr. A. Santos Avenue near Kraft is a 4 hectare area owned and operated by Bio Research. However, most of the animals found here are a collection of birds, fishes, small farm animals, and house hold pets situated in a garden depicting our national land marks per region.
A collection of Salt and Fresh water fishes is probably the biggest attraction at The Lost Eden. The Koi Pavillion is probably the largest holding facility for Koi's that we've seen so far.
A mini pet play ground where the animals perform and do some shows.
Their Pigeon Mansion is the second largest attraction at The Lost Eden. The Pigeon Mansion which is home to wide variety of Pigeons which are breed and trained as pets and for competitions. They even conduct training and seminars on how to breed and train pigeons.
They also have a small be farm, where visitor can see and learn about how bees live and produce honey. There are signs that give small trivia about the animals in the exhibit.
You can see butterflies close-up inside their butterfly farm as they have prepared some honey and flowers on a plate which attract butterflies so you can see them resting and in close-up.
A small replica of Bohol's chocolate hills is one of the attractions landscaped into the place.
As a souvenir each child was give a small fresh water fish to take home and care for. An excellent strategy if I may say so myself. Children really love fish are overly excited at bringing home their very own fish. Chances are, if you don't own an aquarium at home, you'll be buying your supplies from them. Overall we ended-up buying Php 1000++ work of aquarium supplies and equipment. Here a simple guide to help you in setting-up your own aquarium.
