"If I Ran the Rainforest"

This wonderful "Cat in the Hat" Learning Library book was the inspiration for our program of the same name. In this program, we read this wonderful book and introduce our animals as they are presented in text. We also use several props to help kids visualize the vocabulary words used in this lyrical children's book.

The Rainforest

This is our signature show with 8-10 rainforest animals providing the teaching tools for this popular program. In this overview, we discuss all aspects of the rainforests from the layers that make up for forest to their locations around the world to the dangers that threaten the fragile ecosystem.

The Brazil Nut Tree

This rainforest program is designed for grades 3 and up. This well structured program focuses on the Brazil nut tree as the center of a rainforest ecosystem. It covers the basics of the layers of the rainforest to the interdependence of plant/animal species. A wide variety of animals are used, from macaws and coatis to tree porcupines and boa constrictors. Students will leave this program with a sense of wonder for the natural environment from the rainforest to the world. A syllabus/program description is available upon request.
