My aunt is a second grade teacher and has ask me to bring in my snakes to show her class. I want to help and educate others but I need some advise on how to take my snakes in and not stress them out too much.

I will have to travel about 1 hour to where she teaches. What should I do to move my snakes to where she teaches? I know pillow cases is a common way to transport, but how do I know how to regulate the temp to keep my snakes in good shape? I have a keeper for my small snake and one for the large but I wan too keep the stress as low as possible.

Is this safe for my snakes or should I not bother with moving them? I really would like to use them to educate others but I don't want to do anything to hurt my snakes either.

Any advise or suggestions is appreciated.
