Reptile Zoo with DK

Tessa's preschool class took a field trip to a local reptile zoo and I got the privilege of a going along! They got to check out many animals on display and then had a special demonstration where they got to touch, feel and hold several snakes, lizards, turtles and bugs! It was pretty neat. The kids had some interesting questions throughout the demonstration. They seemed to be obsessed with what the animals ate and how they used the restroom.

Daphne, Ella, Lily, Tessa and Jacob checking out one of the snakes! As you can probably tell from the pictures there were lots of squeals and eewwhs going on.

Tessa said, "Look, mom, pirate birds!"

Tessa, Maxwell and Andre (Andre apparently is planning to spend the rest of his life with Tessa and make her his wife. He's quite the gentlemen and meets her at the door every day. We've told him he must go to college and get a job before they can make any serious plans.)
