Smile Traduccion de un título

Hola a todos,

Estoy escribiendo un cuento infantil, que quiero traducir al inglés cuando tenga terminado (aún estoy comenzando). El caso es que me ha surgido una duda importante en cuanto al título se refiere: no sé qué palabra o palabras inglesas podrían ser más apropiadas para su traducción. En castellano el título sería algo así: ZOO-GUARDERIA o también ZOO-ESCUELA, ya que los cuentos tienen lugar en la zona infantil de un zoológico.

Había pensado en traducirlo al inglés como BABYZOO SCHOOL, BABIES' ZOO, NURSERY ZOO. ¿Vosotros qué me recomendáis? ¿Qué título puedo ponerle en inglés, que sea corto y fácil de pronunciar para los niños?

Gracias.

Mis tres sugerencias, si es que te comprendí bien y la escuela es para niños--no para los animales del zoológico--y la escuela está ubicada próxima al zoológico, son éstas:

"Zoo Guardería" = "Nursery School at the zoo" OR "Nursery School near the zoo" OR "Nursery School by the zoo."

Escoje la que mejor corresponda al contexto del cuento.

El término "Kindergarten" es el correcto si los niños cursan el primer año de enseñanza obligatoria

Lots of zoos have a part called the "children's zoo" where children can pet and feed different animals, often baby animals.

La zona infantil de un zoológico se llama "children's zoo."

I hope this help you!

A petting zoo (often called, and/or part of, a "children's zoo") features a combination of domestic animals and some wild species that are docile enough to touch and feed. In addition to independent petting zoos, also called children's farms, many general zoos contain a petting zoo. Some petting zoos are also mobile and will travel to a home for a children's party or event. Many areas have a qualified mobile petting zoo.

Smile Re: Traduccion de un título

Tengo otra duda que me gustaría comentaros, a ver si me podéis echar una mano. La protagonista del relato que estoy escribiendo es una niña de 5 años, muy dulce y que siempre viste un vestido rosa. He probado con varios nombres, pero no encuentro uno que me convenza plenamente. ¿Podéis sugerirme algún nombre para ella, que sea corto y fácil de pronunciar principalmente en inglés?

Muchas gracias.

I'd give her the name Candy, Candi, or Kandi.
