The kids get to pick what they do for their birthdays (within reason of course). This year Haley was thinking about ice skating or going to the beach. And then she got an idea and stuck with it. She wanted a snake party. We have been to events where there are live animals to interact with. That's what she wanted.
We had Brian from For Goodness Snakes (little plug there) come to the house. For an hour he showed his reptiles, included the kids, and educated them on the lives of reptiles. The last 20-30 minutes were spent with all of us interacting with the snakes. It was fun to watch as some children were comfortable right away while others' hesitation transformed to enjoyment.
Very cool!
