"We design programs to the specified age group to ensure an enjoyable learning experience."

We Currently offer the following 50-minute programs for school age children to adults:

Explore the wonderful world of reptiles and amphibians! Meet various examples from these two similar, yet different groups of animals.  Learn about their natural history and the importance of their conservation.  You will also have a chance to pet a lizard, stare into the eyes of a huge toad, and touch a giant python!

Learn about these fascinating but often misunderstood reptiles.  How do they locate prey?  How do they eat?  How big do they grow?  Meet numerous species of snakes.  Learn about our native species and what we can do to conserve their habitat and ensure their survival.

Dragons?! No, not real dragons ~ lizards! Meet many different species of lizards: geckos that can climb glass, skinks with bright blue tongues, a legless lizard, a cousin of the Komodo Dragon, and a lizard with an impressive frill.  Meet these and many more as we venture into the realm of living dragons.

Frogs, toads, and salamanders: meet them all in this fascinating program. How are frogs and toads different?  Can toads really give you warts?  How do they eat?  What is metamorphosis?  How are they environmental indicators?  Learn all this and more as we dive into the mysterious world of amphibians.   

Special Note - The audience will have the opportunity to touch some of the amphibians, but because of the delicate nature of amphibian skin, many amphibians cannot be touched, although close looks are still given.

Encounter some creepy-looking creatures.  This program is a perfect "mixed bag" for birthday parties.  You will see and touch a variety of reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, insects and more!  Don't worry, we won't bite!

Riverside Reptiles specializes in giving the people attending the program a “hands on” experience; we prefer to limit the number of participants to 50 individuals.  Some exceptions may apply; please call for details.  We do offer discounts for multiple consecutive programs; see pricing for more information.
