Conquer your fear of bugs and other creepy crawly scorpions and tarantulas. In this class, you will meet some live roaches, scorpions and tarantulas up close and personal. We will review the body parts, differences and similarities between insects and arachnids. We will also review their role and importance in the environment. This class is geared towards kids that have a fear of bugs and spiders and we will try to address what those fears are through questions and observing behaviors and lots of patience.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a former zookeeper and educator for over 10 years. I have taught all grade levels, scouts, adults, homeschool and other special interest groups. I currently teach mostly bug-based classes as Kim’s Critter Classes for homeschool and scout groups.
My classes are discussion based where the students lead the learning within the topic of the class. I include both biofacts and live animals and insects in my classes and try to incorporate a craft or game with every lesson.
I have hand-raised kangaroos, binturongs, aardvarks and other animals that are in zoos across the country. I have also presented animals on tour with Jack Hanna.
Please message me to schedule a class as I have returned to full time work.
