This past weekend’s Kid’s Play Night was themed “The Magical Mystery Tour to the Magnifying World.” The goal was to get the kids familiar with the different tools for magnification and to give them a different perspective on the world around them! They made their own snake skin slides, dusted for finger prints, and learned how to use a microscope. They watched Scooby-Doo as they enjoyed their pizza.

The kids met several animal ambassadors this weekend, including Tiki the Bearded Dragon, Savannah the Savannah Monitor Lizard, Roon the Fat Tailed Gecko, Digger the Sand Boa, and Stumpy the Crested Gecko. However, Stumpy was the star of the show! The kids loved to watch him jump for person to person and were mesmerized that he would lick his eyeball with his tongue!
