Washington, July 3 : Hollywood actor Tom Cruise bought his daughter Suri a toy kangaroo after she fell in love with marsupials during a trip to Melbourne Zoo in Australia, it has emerged.

Cruise is in Australia along with his family, where he's shooting a new movie 'Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark'.

He decided to treat the three-year-old to the zoo, where Suri got smitten by the marsupials.

"She fell in love with a tree kangaroo before dad treated her to a toy kangaroo and a hobby horse," Contactmusic quoted a source as saying.

The family arrived at Melbourne's Essendon Airport in their private jet, and is staying in a private suite at Crown Casino.
