If you are thinking about going to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo for the Christmas lights I want to suggest another possibility. The Pueblo Zoo is a great smaller zoo that I really love – especially when my children were little. It's flat (MUCH easier for strollers and small legs), has a petting zoo and Pueblo is almost always 10 degrees warmer than Colorado Springs. The cost is pretty comparable (50¢ less per ticket in Pueblo but you have to factor in gas). Once you are to the exit for the CMZ Pueblo is only 40 minutes down the road. We've been to both zoos and enjoyed them both.
