Birthday Party Appearances
We are Based in Bournemouth and travel up to 45 mins Max from Creature Teacher h.q. in Bournemouth, so Please check that we cover your area before getting in touch.
Since our very first birthday party appearance, in 2011, we have been invited to hundreds more over the years. We often attend all the children's parties in one family, and are even invited back to the same child's birthday in subsequent years! The creatures are very popular birthday guests & our weekends book up quite far in advance so it is best to get in touch as early as possible to secure your date!
Animal handling party
From June to Aug We are happy to do birthday parties in your garden, but please have shade available for us and your guests. YOu will need to have an under cover area available should the weather be wet.
Please bear this in mind when deciding guest numbers, in terms of the space you have available for home parties.
"Anyone looking for something different for a party, something that has the children's eyes popping out, their mouths wide open, and at times silent (!) but so much fun and educational, then I personally could not recommend The Creature Teachers enough. They have come to two of our children's birthday parties and on both occasions the children and the adults were raving about them"
Meet tortoises and other scaly animals.
"A huge thank you to The Creature Teachers! My son has returned from his friend's party and can't stop talking about the animals! He wasn't even sure if he would go as he was nervous! You are that amazing, kind and patient that he told me he stroked all the animals and he loved it!"
Creepy crawly and other cold blooded animals to hold.
Harry Potter themed parties.
"I can't thank you enough for making my daughters' birthday party so amazing. Everyone loved your display and thought it was excellent. The way you spent extra time with the birthday girls and included them in the display gave it a personal touch and made them feel special. From enquiring, booking, to the actual party the service I have received has been quick, friendly, informative, and very helpful"
Birthday Party Options
" I just wanted to say a belated thank you for providing such a brilliant party. We enjoyed it so much and the birthday girl is still talking about all of the creatures she got to meet! You were both so professional & engaging, as well as lots of fun, with a big group of young kids! I have received so many compliments on the party."

"The birthday girl felt extra special being able to give the animals an extra cuddle! You put so much energy into the show, it was pitched at the right level for the age group and the time flew by. Keep up the fantastic work, you ladies know your stuff."
