The kids really enjoyed it! I thought you did a great job of presenting
some factual information about the animals without talking too long and losing their attention. I received lots of compliments
from parents. You also made sure the birthday boy felt special. I got some great pics of him with the reptiles.
Thanks for helping make my son's 5th birthday a huge success!

How to make your party great!- a
tried and true method.
When people call us they
want to know about booking, the animals, how a typical events goes, etc but often they are also looking for a great memorable
party with good structure for the children at the event. Crocodile Encounter offers the following suggestion that we have
seen work many, many times. Prior to our arrival have the kids do a crocodile related craft. It is our suggestion that they
create crocodile or reptile picture frames. We arrive and present our animal show. At the conclusion of the show we have the
guests have their picture taken with a photo alligator. The guests go and do the cake/gift portion of the party at which time
Dad or a family friend is printing the pictures of the guests with the animal. After eating the guests put the pictures in
the frames they made previously and take them home as a momento. Total time approximately 2 hours. It's orderly, fun, and
memorable. If you need great party items for your Crocodile Encounter birthday party we have uncovered this website. They seem to carry virtually everything you will need to make your party with us complete.
Important party information
Click here for show layout and party tips
1.We
recommend that your birthday party starts at least 30 minutes before your Crocodile Encounter begins. This
allows the "fashionably late" people to arrive and settle in. It is important that Crocodile Encounter starts on
time. Typically Crocodile Encounter will intentionally arrive 15 minutes after you tell us to allow for late guests. This
has proved an effective way to prevent people from missing part of the show. Of course if you want us there at a designated
time that is perfectly fine as well. Do to intense demand for our show we arrange our weekend show schedule in
two hour blocks based on the first show scheduled on that day. Any other day of the week we have more flexibility.
We try to accommodate every birthday child as there day only occurs once a year and this schedule ensures we can travel anywhere
in the Houston area and maintain schedule integrity.
2.The food should be served after the reptile birthday party, in
order to ensure cleanliness. We ask that the kids are not snacking during the program. Children who are eating during the show will not be permitted to touch the animals.
3. It
takes only a few minutes to set up for a Crocodile Encounter birthday party and we can perform in most indoor rooms,
such as a living or dining room or outside if the weather is appropriate. The animals are generally not messy but like children
accidents can happen although it is a rarity with our primary show animals. We ask that if you are having an outdoor party
you have a shady area designated for the show animals.
4.Reptile
Birthday party pricing is determined based on your location from Crocodile Encounters base facilty
in Angleton Texas. We have a base price that is competitive with other similiar wildlife shows in the state of Texas despite
the fact that our show is the largest in the state. For pricing please see the Croccatalog. To read more about how we determine our price structure read our FAQ.
5.
We ask that you please be respectful of our schedule. It is highly likely that we will be performing
other events on the day yours is scheduled and we structure our travel around your schedule. We want to ensure all of our
clients are satisfied with our educational shows. As such please attempt to adhere to your chosen time as much as possible
so we can extend the same courtesy to all our clients. If your party is starting at 4 have us arrive at 4:30. We only
need a few minutes to set up and then we are into the show.
6. Onsite birthday parties are scheduled in two hour blocks.The first
1hr to 1:15 will be our croc show. We endeavor to leave 45 minutes for your personal party. You are more than welcome to bring
the cake, food, etc. We have a courtyard designated for your party. No food or drink is allowed on the boardwalk at any time
as we have to protect the animals from debris.
7. Book
your event as early as possible.Typically our booking runs about one month in advance although we have preplanners
who may schedule as far as six months in advance of their event and others who call the week(or on occasion day) before. Like
anything else more advance notice gives you the option of securing your preferred date and not having to flex your event around
what is already on our calender. We do an increasing number of shows annually and the schedule gets loaded pretty quickly.

Houston's premier animal event Crocodile Encounter. We look forward to making your child's special crocodile birthday
party an incredible experience and one they will always remember!There birthday comes but once a year and we never forget

storied Nile crocodile each party consists of an additional 10-15 animals which are representative of
the four major reptile groups. Each child will have an opportunity to touch and interact with a variety of reptiles species
safely and securely. The animals are walked throughout the group and guests may gently touch the animal. We do this with
virtually all the reptiles at the show.This is one party that is good for all ages from 2 -110. We are now offering multiple
shows types. These can be viewed on the Event pricing page or by clicking here. The birthday child receives a very cool Crocodile Encounter 'Survivor' t-shirt.

price. We'll try not to eat them while we are at your event! We also have a local cake maker who creates fantastic alligator
and crocodile themed cakes for your party. Please mention your interest when you contact us.

the event presentation and ensures that all guests who wish to have their photo taken with an alligator or crocodile have

animals need their rest! At alligator parks throughout America the typical alligator photo is $25 per shot, we offer a one
