Geckos came to visit us today for pet week! The kids had a great time learning about their habitats and what they eat. They also learned fun facts about how their tails regrow if they loose them!

Thank you Kootenai County Sheriff - Volunteer Search & Rescue for spending time with us to teach us how to stay safe if we get lost with the โhug a treeโ program! We learned to stay in one place, stay warm, stay dry, wear bright clothes and be loud! We got to share helpful information with our families too!
