Got to do a show& tell for the first graders

My nephew wanted to take one of the snakes for show and tell, so the teacher asked me to give a little talk. So I went over the basics and then answered a few questions. I was thinking it went pretty well, then before they left a little boy came up and thanked me. He said he had never seen a real live snake before. Some thing about that made me feel really good. This a little country school it was funny how when we walked out all the kids knowed what was in the box. Well thanks for reading my rambling. Frankie

Its always good to show kids at younge ages that snakes and lizards are non threatning. Way-To-Go Frankie.
