What people are saying about Forest Whales
Schools, libraries, and communities across Wisconsin share their experiences.
Caleb Feidt
Principal - St. Anne's School
"Forest Whales is not only informative, but it also brings laughter and fun into the experience. David’s knowledge and understanding of the child's developmental stages helps him target his program to meet the needs of the group. Not to mention that the whale is so fun for kids to see and interact with. I would highly recommend having this program brought into schools."
Sarah Dilley
Principal - Ithaca Elementary
"Get this on your calendar! Dave, and the folks from Forest Whales are incredible! The communication, digital resources, and ease of scheduling made the experience a breeze and super enjoyable. They were flexible and accommodating to meet our needs, and the presentations were filled with excitement and energy from the first to the very last! He books up fast. Do it!"
Ann Cooksey
Library Director - Appleton
"Kids seemed to enjoy the whole experience. They loved the whale itself and getting to go inside as well as the fossils. I spent the most time by the fossil table and I saw great engagement from kids and adults both. I also saw great family connection and engagement as adults were excited to learn facts and turned to share them with their kiddos right away. It was wonderful."
"Did you see the whale INSIDE the Verona Public Library?! Forest Whales brought fossils and museum-quality replicas of a narwhal tusk, humpback bones, an orca skull, and more for hands-on learning and activities. What a great learning opportunity!"
