Mixed age got a special guest on Thursday! Sparkles the guinea pig! Big shout out to Mrs McClain for letting her come visit us! Mixed age enjoyed petting her and holding her! Some were a little scared to hold her. The kids practiced being gentle and kind as well as explaining and learning what qualities an animal had! Including Sparkles’ soft fur!
