Critterman

The Rita & Truett Smith Public Library in Wylie hosted “Critterman” while I was in town babysitting the grands so Steven, Kylie and I took the Harrison, Rainey and Kinsler to see him while Chandler was at football camp. Critterman brought all sorts of critters and talked to the children about each one. 

 

He brought a tarantula.  Eek!!  I was glad when he put that thing back in its cage!!

He also brought a prairie dog, a opossum, and a snake!  Oh my!!

The alligator and the tortoise were the last 2 critters. 

 

At the end, he let the children come back and feel the tortoise shell. 

 

 

He was pretty interesting and quite knowledgeable about his critters. 

Afterwards, Rainey wanted to get some new library books and she said she needed to get some books about nature.  J  The library has a summer reading program and she and Kinsler had finished their lists so they were able to turn in their lists and for their accomplishments they each received a free book, a reading certificate, a coupon for free food at a local restaurant and got to enter their names in a drawing for a prize.
