One of the best times we had during last school year

I've been meaning to post this for a while now.  Over the school year, one of the events we had was having a veterinarian friend Angel came to talk to our co-op. Angel was amazing.  She has the most gentle manner and soothing voice but was still able to hold the attention of all the kids.  We were all amazed at how attentive the kids were when she talked.

Angel introduced the occupation of veterinarian to the kids, explaining what a vet does, how to become one, the types of animals they treat, etc.  She brought in real animal x-rays showing the type of injuries they had.  Angel also taught the kids about dog bite prevention, and performed teddy bear surgery on the stuffed animals each family brought.  She used really surgical instruments!

Here's the video of Ethan and Noah during their Tigger surgery.
