The Creature Teacher offers up to 30 different animals for various shapes, sizes, colors and textures for you to choose from. Just look over the photos below and email us with your choices. (Please give The Creature Teacher at least one week advance notice on your choice of show/animals.) You may pick and choose from any and all categories and all animals are appropriate  for all age groups. Select the soft and fluffy for your "sqeamish" all girl slumber party or better yet, have the birthday child participate in the selection process. Please see presentation guidelines for numbers of animals allowed within a 30, 45 or 60 minute show.

The Creature Teacher reserves the right to make animal substitutions when deemed necessary, i.e. illness or injury, hibernation or shedding cycles.
