Bringing Scales and Tails to New England Libraries

Bringing the Wild to Your Local Library

Imagine a quiet afternoon at your local New England library suddenly buzzing with excitement as kids and adults alike gather around a spiny tail lizard or a colorful corn snake. At Expedition Reptile, we’re passionate about turning ordinary library visits into extraordinary adventures with our educational reptile shows. Based right here in New England, we’ve been thrilling audiences with live reptiles, engaging stories, and hands-on learning experiences that spark curiosity about the natural world for years.

Libraries across Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine are perfect spots for our scaly friends to make an appearance. Whether it’s a summer reading program, a family event, or a special community gathering, our shows bring a unique twist to library programming that’s both entertaining and packed with learning opportunities.

Why Reptiles and Libraries Are a Perfect Match

Libraries are hubs of discovery, and what better way to inspire exploration than with creatures that have roamed the Earth for millions of years? Our reptile shows fit seamlessly into the library setting, offering a fresh way to engage visitors of all ages. From toddlers giggling at a bearded dragon’s spiky charm to adults marveling at a boa constrictor’s strength, our presentations captivate everyone.

We tailor each show to suit the library’s audience, whether it’s a small group in a cozy reading nook or a packed house in a community room. Our goal? To make every event memorable while sharing fascinating facts about reptiles and their role in nature. Plus, we handle all the setup and cleanup—libraries just provide the space, and we bring the adventure!

What to Expect from Our Reptile Shows

Every Expedition Reptile show is a blend of fun, facts, and face-to-face encounters with live reptiles. Here’s what libraries in New England can look forward to:

  • Live Reptile Stars: Meet a rotating cast of characters like tortoises, lizards, and snakes—each with its own personality and story. Favorites include our gentle ball python and our quirky gecko pals.
  • Engaging Lessons: We weave in cool tidbits about reptile habitats, behaviors, and adaptations, sparking questions and conversations among attendees.
  • Hands-On Fun: Where it’s safe and allowed, we offer supervised opportunities to touch or hold a reptile, giving kids and adults a chance to connect with these amazing animals.
  • Custom Fit: We adjust the show’s length and content to match the library’s schedule and crowd—think 60 minutes of reptile magic or a quick 30-minute pop-up.

Benefits for Libraries and Communities

Our reptile shows do more than entertain; they bring real value to New England libraries and the people they serve. Kids get a break from screens and a chance to learn about wildlife up close. Families bond over shared gasps and laughs. And libraries strengthen their role as community centers by hosting an event that draws crowds and leaves lasting impressions.

We’ve seen shy kids light up with confidence after petting a lizard, and adults rediscover a sense of wonder they’d forgotten. Plus, our shows tie into science and nature themes, complementing library programs focused on learning and exploration. It’s a win for everyone—especially the reptiles, who get to be ambassadors for their species!
