WILD ABOUT SCIENCEl
Our school programs are the heart and soul of our business. As current or former educators, our staff shares a passion for teaching. We understand the TEKS and how to teach in a way to make the words on the pages come to life. We encourage our students to touch, experience, and enjoy our animals in a safe and controlled environment. Our programs will have you and your students laughing, cheering, and learning. Let us help you bring life to your classroom, STEM night, or PTA/PTO gathering.

We don’t think learning should be limited to the classroom. We can bring our animals right to your doorstep for your next birthday. Our party programs are fun, and educational for ALL ages. Kids and parents enjoy our programs. This is a great way to celebrate birthdays for kiddos ages 3 – 100. Who doesn’t love animals? Choose your program length, then pick your animals. Each program is specially designed by you. One of our expertly trained staff will bring the animals and the fun! The Creature Teacher also offers some great options for scout meetings/banquets, corporate events, reunions, VBS, special needs, assisted living and more! Contact us today and let us help you schedule one of our amazing programs.

Every summer, you can find The Creature Teacher traveling across the great state of Texas, headed to the next library. We love our Summer Reading Programs! As educators ourselves, we know the importance of keeping those reading skills sharp and not falling victim to the “summer slide” when reading levels dip during the school break. As an enticement to keep reading, libraries offer a Summer Reading Program and hosts fun events like ours. Each year is a different theme and a unique group of animals. Check with your librarian to see when The Creature Teacher is scheduled to appear. It’s free, it’s fun, and coming to a library near you!

That’s actually a great question! Anyone with a handful of animals can do animal programs. What sets us apart is that we do things the right way. We have a Class C Exhibitor’s license with the USDA. It is a legal requirement to have this license before showing any mammals for entertainment or education. Many businesses are operating without going through the proper channels. Anyone doing animal programs with mammals without the proper license can risk heavy fines and/or being shut down. The USDA inspects the licensees and makes sure that proper care, clean conditions, current vet visits, and detailed documentations are maintained. This oversight helps you rest assured that only healthy animals that are kept in clean habitats will be coming to your home, school, library, etc. Before you book with anyone, ask if they have the appropriate USDA license.
Another great reason for choosing The Creature Teacher is that all of our teachers have either Master of Education or Bachelor of Science degrees and are experienced in the teaching field. We are more than just a Google search. We have curriculum that enhances the learning potential of each child. We are familiar with the grade appropriate TEKS and encourage learning. We think that every moment can be a teachable moment. We aim for those that watch our programs to come away smarter than they were when we started!
And finally, all of our staff are background checked, dependable and professional. There are some things in life that are worth taking a gamble, but your child’s birthday, your school program, or your company event is not the time to leave things to chance. Because we have a full staff, we will always arrive as planned. We are also a local business, located in the DFW area. We have been around for over 20 years, so we must be doing something right!
We had The Creature Teacher come for my twin boys’ 6th birthday party and it was so amazing! The boys loved every minute of it and I know it will be a great lifelong memory for them that they got to have a baby kangaroo come to their birthday party and that they got to hold a huge snake! Highly recommende
We absolutely loved the Creature Teacher at our son’s 6th Birthday Party. She was so easy to communicate with throughout the process and the presentation was so perfect! Thank you!! Jessie
