FAQ's
Generally 3 to 100. It’s a party perfect for almost any age! Very few people ever outgrow their love of animals.
Some of our best programs are for the teenage group. They LOVE the opportunity to hang out with the animals.

For birthday programs, you pick the animals you want us to bring.

If the weather is nice enough that the children are comfortable without sweating, it is usually ok for the animals to be outside. We do ask that the area be shaded for the animals in the warm months.
Not more than 20 is our recommendation.
