Story time with animals - Catherine - 06-27-2015
A library that has a Spanish language story time for small children has found a way to keep it interesting and bring in more kids. They bring an animal to the session. So when the story is about a duck, they actually have a duck there for the children to see.

Now that is learning that makes sense.

That sounds like a great idea so long as the animal is relaxed and likes children.
It would mean a lot to the children.

I think it would work out. They would choose their animals carefully.
When we have reason to show off corn snakes, I bring some of my own snakes from home. I know which ones will actually enjoy the outing. I have some very shy snakes and I would never take them out. Mike however loves going out. Just like people, they have very different personalities.
