Monday is the celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday and a Federal holiday. Schools are closed in Woodbridge, and that might have parents panicking about how to keep the young ones entertained.

The YMCA at the Woodbridge Community Center has a great presentation that no kid can resist. The Lizard Guys, a full time company of animal enthusiasts who have been introducing children to their creepy and crawling pets since 1995, will have a special show this Monday.

The show, which is free, starts at 11 am in the upper lobby area. Participants are asked to arrive at least 15 minutes before the one-hour show starts.

Snakes, lizards, and other critters will engage kids (and horrify parents), and the presenters from the Raritan-based Lizard Guys are guaranteed to amuse, educate, and enthrall their young charges.

For more info, call the YMCA at 732-596-4170.
