• Friday open stable with feeding, petting and stick bread by the fire, but it doesn't run every week, so check the GZ program before you go
• Animal pens open anytime, so kids can say hello to the goats and pigs at the fence outside program hours too
• Busy self-service café with snacks, homemade baking and a hot lunch on weekdays from noon; no reservations, and groups and kids' parties should arrange ahead

GZ Wipkingen is a city community center on a meadow beside the Limmat. Kids run the lawn, climb the rope playground, swing, and dig in a sandpit with a conveyor belt.

The Wipkihof farm keeps mini pigs, dwarf goats, guinea pigs and chickens. On open-stable afternoons kids help in the barn, feed and pet some of the animals, and usually bake stick bread over a fire.
