Thinking of doing something wondering if people would be interested in something like this?

That sounds like an awesome idea to me!!!!!

Not only her teaching these things to other kids is great, but it will help her for the future in so many ways.

She will learn how to be able to answer questions efficiently, it will help her to be able to speak in front of crowds, it will teach her how to do research, and most importantly, it will also help her with her self-esteem.

It will make her feel so good about herself which will take her a lot of places in her life.

After feeling confident about that, she will know that she can do it, and will feel really good about trying out other things later on.

As a Parent, you need to keep encouraging her to reach for the stars, and to make new goals, and to never give up until she reaches them, because she can!!!!

I wish both of you Good Luck!!!

There would be a lot of work in doing it. Legal work. Insurance not only on you and the family but open insurance on the people you show your pets to just in case some thing happen and some one got hurt. I would also make sure all information she give is a fact you would hate ot be giving out wrong information.

You should start by having a video commercial on line web page so people can check it out. Maybe have a fake party and put on a show and add some clips and pictures.

Also if any of them are Poisson's you will need to check in to getting CPR/medical certified to handle what happens if on bites or stings. I know you can get certified to carry an epi pen and some other medical stuff.

I think this is a FANTASTIC idea! I think parents would enjoy it as much as the children!! MUCH better than having someone dressed as Spongebob bouncing around and being annoying, leaving the parents to go off into another room so they can get away from the craziness. I HIGHLY recommend following through with this idea. Wish I thought of it :) You could educate, leave a lasting impression on the children at the party, and probably make some real good money doing it too. What a great business idea!! Good luck!

Sounds like a great idea... exotic petting zoo :) I think it would be great fun & a good experience for you and your family. I also think you are right that children would really respond well to anther child teaching them. It would also be a good learning experience for your daughter not only in animal handling & teaching like at a zoo, but business & money management as well as advertising if you include her in this.

Good luck! Hopefully it goes well w/ you.

wow I just want to start off by saying what an amazing little girl you have. And I think this is a wonderful idea, I would enjoy alot having this young child and her pets come to a party this

i have to say by far is a great idea. Your daughter is so amazing I would just enjoy listening to her Tell me about the animals.....Good Luck with your Idea

I think that would be great, but you should look into local laws. There are sometimes laws about animal preformances and animal handling, or snake handling.

You would also need to get insurance, which might be tough.

GREAT idea! ...OR you can set-up in your own backyard and open a WEEKEND NEIGHBORHOOD PETTING ZOO (that way, you won't have to transport the animals often which can be stressful to both you and the animals); set specific visiting schedules so your little zoo keeper-resource person can plan on her presentations.

when my eldest was in preschool, a class trip to a neighbor who had several pets was one of the best they had. and yes, the pet-owners had kids who did the talking with the preschoolers.

good luck and have fun!

What about something other than birthday parties too. She could go to nursing homes or senior centers and do presentations for them. Most of them would be happy just to see a child having fun and it would give your daughter a chance to see what volunteering is all about.

Wow, great idea. My 3 year old daughter is having a birthday party in May. If you're in Nebraska, I'd be interested for sure!!!

Thats a really good idea. I went to a b-day party like that with my 2 nephews. They told them about the animals, then let them pet them if they wanted. All the kids really seemed to like it.
