I have been wanting to do a school presentation for awhile now and finally got my chance today. My mother-in-law is a principal at an independent studies school nearby.

I had 2 presentations, one for K2 and one for K3-6 this morning. I ended up bringing a variety of snakes including Boas. I had a great time and the kids seemed to as well. The teachers and parents were asking questions and getting involved too!

For the most part all the kids weren't afraid and some even had Ball Pythons as pets. Though, the coolest thing was getting the kids that didn't have any interest in holding them decide for themselves that they really did want to hold a snake!

Here are a couple pics. I should have some more pics soon but wanted to check with the parents first and get their permission before blasting the internet with their kids picture! If you could only see their smiling faces!!

I just wanted to say THANKS to Gray at Allboas.com for providing the information on his website in having a successful presentation!!

Mom-in-law helping and other teacher helping out.
