Classroom Visits
Barnyard in the Classroom (Pre-K – 5th Grade)
Let us bring the barnyard to you! This amazing workshop lets students interact with a variety of our farm animals. Students will receive brief overviews of farm animals, their natural history, and learn a variety of proper animal terms. The best way to learn about animals is from the animals themselves! Only available within a 25 mile radius of Fairytale Town.
Pollinators and Decomposers (Pre-K – 8th Grade)
Discover the world of Pollinators and Decomposers with real buzzing bees! Students will learn that bees are great pollinators and are responsible for one in every three bites we take of food. Students will also be able to meet amazing bugs like the Giant Hissing Cockroach and African Giant Millipede, who are excellent decomposers.
BUGS! (Pre-K – 8th Grade)
It’s a small world after all! Arthropods make up the largest phylum in the animal kingdom, and that’s a lot! 84% of all known species of animals make up the Arthropoda Phylum! Students will get to meet living specimens and learn about these amazing bugs.
Reptile Explorers (Pre-K – 8th Grade)
Ever heard of an ectotherm? No, it’s not something from a sci-fi movie. Ectotherms are cold-blooded animals, like reptiles! For this visit, we will bring our many reptile friends to the classroom so we can explore their scaly lives together. Students will learn about what defines a reptile, what they eat, and how they protect themselves in the wild.
Classroom Critters (Pre-K – 8th Grade)
Discover the magic of Classroom Critters! Our animal team brings the enchanting world of chinchillas, rabbits, and tortoises right to your classroom! Students will get hands-on experience as we explore whether these adorable critters make the perfect classroom companions for the class! Students will get up close and personal with these fascinating animals, fostering curiosity and a deeper connection with nature. Classroom Critters is where learning meets cuddles, where students embark on a journey of discovery!
