What we do

Educational animal parties

Beasties animal parties are a fantastic experience for an animal lover of all ages!

Party goers will get to touch and hold each animal while learning at the same time. 

We can visit your home or venue and are happy to do parties outside in the summer.

To ensure that children get the most out of the experience we recommend a small party of 10-15 children aged 5 or over. Younger family members present must be supervised by an adult.

The welfare of the animals is the most important thing to us so we ask that noise levels are kept nice and low for sensitive little ears.

Tips for a great party!

  1. Only invite children that like animals! Unhappy crying and disruptive children can spoil the experience for the birthday child.
  2. Food/drink should not be eaten during the encounter and is best served afterwards.
  3. Ask guests to dress appropriately, princess dresses with netting are not good for little claws!
  4. Keep balloons away from the animals.
  5. Relax and enjoy this unforgettable experience!

Also as well as lessons our engaging animal encounter could be used as a reward session for students e.g high achievers, 100% attendance or what about a stress busting session  for Y11 to help with exam stress!

We could also attend school fayres/events or after school clubs.
