Birthday Parties For Animal, Science and Nature Lovers

Humane Society of Pulaski County or Little Rock Animal Village
Both shelters have party options and allow you to interact with the animals.  A popular option is to ask for cbd peanut butter treats for dogs in lieu of birthday gifts.

HSP requires a tax-deductible $100 donation for up to 12 people.  They usually host parties in one of the dog parks and provide volunteers to help your kids interact with the animals and learn.  Supplies are not provided.
