Manila Zoo is located in Adriatico St., Malate, Manila. I researched online before going and I found this blog helpful, hope mine will be helpful as well. You may bring food inside the zoo (I didn't see a sign that says you can't and I saw families having picnic inside).
Check out the photos of our adventure:

Entrance fee, Manila residents: Adult 50, Kids below 4ft 30

Clockwise from top left: Elephant, Hippo, Turtle, Burmese Python, Tiger,
Deer, Guinea Pigs, Reticulated Python
Center: Philippine Crocodile
Even though the zoo was quite old, it's still worth the time and effort to let your child see these animals in the flesh.
