    More about Nurseries and Preschools

    Immerse your Nursery or Preschool in a day filled with excitement and discovery! At Wild Science, we specialise in igniting children's passion for learning by bringing the magic of the zoo directly to their doorstep. Our engaging programs are designed to transform young learners into enthusiastic little scientists ready to explore the wonders of the natural world.

    We recognise that every stage of life presents a unique opportunity for exploration and growth. That's why we're thrilled to offer interactive sessions tailored specifically for younger children. And it ensures that each activity is age-appropriate and stimulating. Our meticulously crafted topics align seamlessly with the themes and lessons commonly taught in nurseries and preschools, making it effortless for educators to weave our hands-on activities into their existing curricula.

    From adorable animal encounters to fascinating scientific experiments, we strive to spark curiosity and foster a love of learning in every child. Join us as we embark on this adventure together, where learning is not just educational—it's also a whole lot of fun! Let’s create unforgettable memories and inspire the next generation of curious minds!

    Animals:

    In the early years of education, children learn the importance of empathy, kindness, and sharing. Engaging with animals can significantly enhance these essential values and foster healthy relationships. Beyond igniting curiosity and building confidence, our goal is to ensure that children have a delightful experience with all our animals while also learning to respect
    all living beings.

    We offer a diverse array of animals, including reptiles, mammals, amphibians, and invertebrates, tailored to the theme you select for your setting. Our goal is to educate children about these fascinating creatures, sharing insights into their preferences and behaviours. We’ll demonstrate the correct ways of handling and petting the animals, emphasising the significance of gentle touch, especially when interacting with smaller species.

    Mini-beasts are a favourite among nurseries and preschools, as invertebrates are a hit and a popular lesson with younger kids. However, that doesn't mean you have to stick to just that topic. We offer a variety of subjects that are ideal for young children and can be tailored to suit their specific needs.

    Science:

    Can children of Nursery or Preschool age participate in science experiments? Absolutely! Children as young as this can take part in a variety of engaging science activities. At Wild Science, we have thoughtfully designed a range of experiments that are not only safe but also enjoyable for little ones. Each of our products is non-toxic and crafted from natural materials, ensuring a completely safe environment for kids to explore their curiosity.

    We believe in fostering a spirit of discovery, so why not encourage your little ones to unleash their inner "Nutty Professors"? With our activities, they can embark on a fun-filled day of crafting and conducting experiments themed around exciting topics, such as colour mixing, simple chemical reactions, and natural science. These hands-on experiences not only help
    children learn, but also stimulate their imaginations and creativity.

    Create unforgettable memories as you watch their faces light up with joy and wonder! Engaging in these interactive science experiments will not only strengthen their understanding of basic scientific principles but also promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Let the adventure begin with Wild Science!

    We booked a corporate animal therapy session as part of Mental Health Awareness week, and it was truly loved by everyone. The animal expert Harriet was absolutely fantastic - super knowledgable, engaging and clearly passionate about every animal she introduced us to. The visit included a snake, rabbit, gerbil, snail and more - all of which were super theraputic! It was amazing to see how quickly the team relaxed and connected with the animals. Harriet created such a calm environment that even our more hesitant colleagues were soon happily holding the snake.

    We can't recommend Wild Science highly enough - if you're looking to boost morale, reduce stress or just do something a little bit different for your team.

    Thanks again for the incredible experience! Fidget was amazing & we are now thinking if adding ferrets to the family. I hope fidget enjoys his chicken 🐔

    Animal visit (Summer Fair Gilmerton Community Centre)
    The management committee would like to thank Susie and trainee Amy for bringing the animals to the Community Centres Summer Fair. Once again, they were very popular with adults and children. Those attending said they enjoyed meeting and learning about the animals up close.

    We were delighted to have both Shannon & Amy attend our free family event at Crystal Peaks shopping centre this Friday. Their communication on the run-up to our event was great. On the day, the head office called us to check everything was ready & the hosts arrived in plenty of time. We had a lot of very excited guests that got to enjoy a range of fascinating creatures throughout the day. The team were great with the public & very knowledgeable about their little critters. We can't recommend Wild Science enough. Thank you for making our day so good.

    The animal expert we were lucky enough to have from wild science was excellent. She even managed to keep the kids at a 7 year old birthday party relatively quiet and very interested. Would highly recommend.

    We have used Wild Science for 3 years at our school. Each year they deliver wonderful sessions to Nursery and Reception children. We have never had any issues and would recommend them to everyone. The children love the experience and the animals and staff are amazing!

    Thank you Wild Science for such an amazing party! Amy was super professional and had the kids eating out of the palm of her hand. My son absolutely loved the animals she brought and we were so impressed with how she handled the group (of 3-5 year olds) and gave them interesting and fun facts about each animal which kept all the kids interested and engaged. It was so much fun, we would highly recommend it!!!

    Ross was absolutely amazing. So patient, kind and knowledgeable of the animals and the slime workshop. We had a party of 20 and with the madness that ensued he was always calm and reassuring for each child if they were apprehensive of holding any animal - big or small. Would 100% book Wild Science again, especially Ross.
    Thank you for making our animal lovers birthday so special!
