Pirates gather to celebrate a birthday at Ijams

Ahoy Matey! There was a plethora of pirate pups recently at Ijams. Well, actually it was a pirate themed birthday party. 

This time, Lilah (darling one middle back row) celebrated her eight birthday with a gathering of pirates. Aaaagh!

Ijams hosts over 100 birthday parties a year and although the theme may be whimsical, the nature lessons we teach are real. Generally we show a few live education animals and then go outside looking for tadpoles or salamanders or whatever happens to crawl out from under a log.
