The reptile party your “absolutely not” nervous system can handle
You don’t have to love reptiles.
You don’t have to touch anything.
You don’t even have to pretend.
Your child gets the magic. You keep your dignity.
LET’S CLEAR SOMETHING UP
Let’s clear something up.
Most of the parents who book us don’t like reptiles.
Some are nervous.
Some are mildly horrified.
Some are doing this because their child is obsessed and they are… not.
That’s normal.
And it’s exactly who this party is designed for.
This is not:
A “everyone must hold a snake” situation
A pressure-filled performance
A test of how brave you are
This is:
Calm
Contained
Completely optional — at every stage
What actually happens at a Scaly Safari party
We arrive calm, organised, and on time. (Yes — really.)
The animals stay secure and are supervised by us at all times.
Children are invited — never pushed — to interact.
Watching quietly is always a valid option.
It’s lively, a bit mad (it is a kids’ party), and run in a way that makes sure everyone stays safe.
That’s the format.
No chaos.
No free-for-all.
No surprises.
The children are usually completely absorbed — the good kind of quiet, where something genuinely cool is happening (and adults realise halfway through that it’s actually going really well 😱 ).
Boundaries, safety & consent
We don’t:
Pressure children (or adults)
Push past discomfort
Use fear as entertainment
Turn bravery into a performance
We do:
Run fully consent-led experiences
Read the room properly
Move at the pace of the most cautious child
Keep animals and people equally safe
Holding an animal is always optional.
So is getting closer.
So is changing your mind halfway through.
That’s not a loophole.
That’s the design.
WHY SCALY SAFARI
We do this for a living.
Not as a novelty.
Not as a side hustle.
Families book us because they want:
Something genuinely different
A child who feels seen
An experience that doesn’t tip the room into chaos
We’re calm.
We’re organised.
We read people well.
In fact…we’re very good at reading rooms — especially ones full of excited children and slightly tense adults.
We bring animals most children only ever see in books — and we present them in a way that keeps the room calm.
And parents who say, “I didn’t expect to enjoy that,” are kind of our speciality.
Investment & booking
If this sounds like your kind of party, the next step is to check availability.
Scaly Safari parties start at £275.
Final pricing depends on location, duration, and any optional extras. (We’ll walk you through it calmly.)
We take a limited number of bookings so we can do this properly.
