Why parents love it

Your presenter holds their attention — and the host doesn't have to run the activity.

The presentation moves between stories, questions, humour and animal interaction. No child has to touch an animal — watching, listening and asking questions are all great ways to participate. West Coast Exotics brings the animals and leads the experience, allowing parents to take photographs, laugh and enjoy the party.

'I don't like all animals, but I respect all animals' is going to forever be in my mind!

We just had West Coast Exotics for my son's 9 year old birthday party, and it was a huge hit!

He did a brilliant job making the birthday-boy feel like it was his special day, without the others feeling sidelined.

We had Kevin at our son's 5th birthday party and had to have him back again for his 6th because he was truly THAT amazing!...
