Each summer the kids enjoy a Silly Safari show at our library. This is a group from Indianapolis that brings down a selection of animals to show the children. They teach them facts about the animals and let the kids pet some of the animals. Yesterday they got to see 2 rabbits, a tortoise, a skink, a millipede, a tree frog, a chicken, a snake, a baby alligator and a dog.
Here is Bekah petting a baby tortoise.

When it was Brandon's turn to pet the baby alligator, the lady said, "here, hold out your hands and you can hold him." After a moment of panic, he got brave and tried it!

And, of course my pet-loving girl wanted to spend lots of time petting the dog!
