i am a sophomore at northeastern highschool (central pa)and i have about 13 herps right now. i have been coming to this forum for years and keeping for about 5. anyway, in my school we are required to do a senior project in order to graduate, and while i still have 2 years to do it i am doing it now, along with my boyfriend. we have decided to do a reptile"demonstration" at a local elementary school, probably for third graders. we are going to teach them about the animals natural habitats, how they eat, and other things about the herps. we want to teach them to respect the animals and not to be afraid of them. im going to take herps with me and allow the kids to touch/hold/ look at the actual animals they are learning about. any suggestions on how we should do this successfully would be very greatly appreciated.
thanks for all of the help
