Cool Critters Outreach

Animals, STEM

Brian and his team are super engaging, reliable, friendly, and put on an excellent show! They are flexible and will make sure you get the type of program you want. I've had them visit both as a main attraction, and a table to simply stop by and meet their animals. They've worked with different themes I've had (Jumanji and Harry Potter) and are an all around great company! Highly, highly recommend!" - Lauren Brandstetter, Kenton County Public Library

Didgeridoo Down Under

Animals, Shows

“This was a fun and educational program. There was Australian culture, music, teaching on tolerance, and more. Raihan was our performer and he did a great job. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and we were inspired to make our own didgeridoo for the summer reading program. Our crowd was young and a lot of the teaching went over their heads, but the music engaged them. I could see that the show was organized to alternate between listening and being active and Raihan handled the transitions very well. You can tell he is an experienced teacher. Everyone enjoyed meeting his pet Australian blue-tongued lizard! Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would recommend the show to others.” – Christy Terry, Johnson Co. Public Library

Honey Hill Farm

Animals, Family Entertainment

"We have had Honey Hill Farm pony rides a couple of times and they were great and so easy to work with. The animals are very clean and friendly. Families loved the program." - Maria Parker, Kenton County Public Library

Silly Safari

Animals, Shows

“We have had Silly Safari do a Summer Reading show for several years. We had Amazon John and Coyote Chris. They both do a fabulous job! If you have not had them yet, you definitely should. The kids love the show and the animals they bring. After the show, the kids have the opportunity to pet some of the animals. They were absolutely wonderful shows!”    – Sandy Florence, Pendleton Co. Public Library

Snakes Alive!

Animals, STEM

“Marc has done three excellent programs for our library and other Northern Kentucky libraries. Marc is the past president and presenter for the Greater Cincinnati Herpetological Society. His presentations are outstanding probably because he has 31 years’ experience as a high school science teacher and is an adjunct professor of biology for Gateway Community College. Marc is also a snake breeder and hobbyist.” – Julie Donahue, Owen Co. Public Library

Southwest Dairy Farmers

Animals, STEM

“The folks at Southwest Dairy Farmers offer several free educational programs that will visit your library. We had a cute little Jersey cow named Jett visit in 2018 and Becca the cow visited in 2019. The SDF has a mobile classroom fitted out for these visits where your patrons can watch a cow being milked and learn about the dairy industry. The SDF representative was informative, patient and answered every question from our patrons. We had a huge crowd both years and hope to have the SDF farmer and cow visit again soon.” – Bookie Wilson, Woodford Co. Public Library
