This program begins with a story of a family bringing home their first puppy. During the story, kids learn how to safely interact with a dog and how to prevent a bite. After the story, children get to practice what they learned in a game of eye spy. Kids will also have an opportunity to meet one of the Nemours facility dogs, Ali, and her handler, Kelsey. Perfect for ages 4 to 10 years. Caregivers must remain with children for duration of the program.


Registration is required and space is limited. Program reservation includes admission to Nemours Estate on the program date, starting at 10:00 a.m. Buildings are open until 4:30 p.m., and the grounds close at 5:00 p.m. For more information or to learn about accommodations for this program, please email: annie.thomas-bubel@nemours.org.
