About LEARN NATURE | PARTY ANIMALS

Since I'm asking to be in your classroom (or home) and interact with your kids you need to know something about me: 
I'm Tom Kinsey and I've been a teacher for many years, working with kindergartners through adults.

LEARN NATURE|PARTY ANIMALS  is a way for me to present the same museum quality nature programs I presented for years--designed for those who can't or don't want to do an entire field trip.  One of the most frequent questions I was asked when I was the Staff Naturalist at the Witte Museum was "Do you visit schools?" and the answer was always no. Now that I'm "retired" I can say "yes, I'd be glad to bring some friends and visit!" And it it's a party, all the better!
