Animal Wonders offers four fun, interactive, and informative programs for your pre-school or day care specially desinged for ages 3 to 6.
The Diversity of Life program is designed to exhibit the variety of animals on Earth starting with the simple animals (invertebrates) to the more advanced animals (vertebrates). An example of each will be shown to the students with facts of each type presented. We also attempt to have an example from each continent and ecosystem (except Antarctica). Our most popular pre-school and day care program.
The Creepy & Crawly program will introduce the students to several species that are typically feared, but are actually very important to our ecosystems. Children will get to see a live example of each group, learn about what they eat, where they live and more. Some of the animals the children will get to see: tarantulas, scorpions, snakes, lizards, and other "creepy" critters!!
Our Feathered Friends program is all about birds. Children will see several live birds and learn about feathers, flight, beaks, and bills.
What Came First, the Chicken or the Egg? All about chickens! This special activity allows the children to observe hatching and learn about chickens. We will bring an incubator to you along with instructions on care of the eggs. On the anticipated hatch day (usually 21 days later), one our educators will return to your facility for a presentation on chickens. We will show the children the adult versions of the baby chicks they have just hatched and talk about how the chicken is one of the most important animals in the world. Our instructor will take the incubator and chicks with them after the presentations. Animal Wonders will provide updates to the school via e-mail on the status of the chicks and how they have grown. Seasonal availability for hatching eggs, but we do have a chicken program available year-round. Various chicken breeds and the ancestor of all chickens, the Red Junglefowl will be shown to the children. (limited & seasonal availablity)
Other programs suited to this age group are in the works and will be added soon. We also provide booth activities for your school or other functions.
