Children’s Education Events
In addition to our Educational Presentations and Shelter Tours, CRHS also offers a spectrum of Kids Programs that are designed to allow students of all ages an opportunity to actively join fellow animal lovers in the effort to create a better world for all living things. We ask you as an educator to help us increase awareness of these programs by sharing these opportunities with your students and encouraging them to participate.
Join us for a week of animal-themed fun, learning, and hands-on experiences!
