A Boy and His Ball (and Hammer)

by 11 Comments

After a raucous Thanksgiving celebration yesterday, which included lots of fun and lots of food, most of the chimpanzees are laying low (I think many of our followers in the U.S. can relate, am I right?).

Burrito isn’t generally one to “lay low”, but today he did most of his playing on his back!  It’s always a pleasure to watch Burrito entertain himself 🙂

Enrichment is Fun

If you are watching with sound, you can hear that I was unable to contain my laughter at one point. Nevertheless, I attempted to frame Burrito’s silliness in the most educational way possible ;). Thanks to Krissy for the brand new Jolly Ball that she made sure Burrito had today!

We stuffed cabbage and a few nuts in each of those red ball puzzles.

A missed moment

I’ve been sitting on this fun video for a perfect quick blog on a busy meeting day. Burrito brings out all his silliness when he plays with his Jolly Ball!  We’ve seen countless moments like this one in the last few months since he got this new toy.
