Mel B hired a mobile zoo complete with 25 different animals for her daughter Madison's third birthday party.
Brown threw Madison an animal party last weekend to celebrate her third milestone and had every creature "you could think of" delivered to her mansion in Los Angeles.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, she said: "I had snakes in my house on Sunday because I did an animal party for Madison because she turned three.
"They had 25 different animals and they educated the kids where the animals were from and what they eat. We had a turtle, a lizard and little baby rats."
However, despite the animal party being the 'X Factor' judge's bright idea, she admits she was more scared than her children when her lavish home was taken over by slithery snakes and big scary spiders.
She explained: "We had every animal you could possibly think of. I was the one that was terrified - the kids loved it. They were holding the tarantulas, they were holding the snakes, pythons, chinchillas."
The brunette beauty didn't have to hide her anxieties from many people though as the party was a private affair, with just Mel, her husband Stephen Belafonte and three daughters Phoenix, 15, Angel, seven, and Madison in attendance.
She said: "It was me, my husband, and my three kids."
