Red-Eared Slider TurtleWE BRING OUR PROGRAMS TO YOU!
Critter Tales Inc. is a non profit (501c3) outreach organization in Warr Acres, Oklahoma (near N.W. OKC) designed to promote awareness of wildlife and conservation through exciting, educational programs. We will travel to any facility in the State of Oklahoma.
Live animals, bio-facts, books, posters, puppets, songs, and crafts provide effective hands on learning experiences for children.
In a time that is more and more removed from nature we have to make an extra effort to ensure our children's connection to the natural world. Making these connections at an early age helps develop a life long passion for all life on earth._______________________________________

All programs are educational. Children are allowed to touch live animals during presentations. This is used as a teaching tool. Critter Tales is not a Petting Zoo. Learning how we affect nature is the first step to understanding what we can do to protect it.

Hand Sanitizer is provided with each party/program. Everyone who touches live animals is required to use this product. If there is an allergy to Germ-X please notify presenter. Thank you!
