Young Explorers - Seal Day

We had a lot of fun yesterday with the students attending the Seal Young Explorer Program at the aquarium.  We observed the seals, played the seal and herring game, watched Snorkel and Loki eat their breakfast, made seal and fish puppets, dressed up a human with all the items they would need to live in the water like a seal, did a seal and sea lion relay race, and made seal whiskers.

We have more fun and learning planned for next week's Shark program.  Click here for more information.
