Does your little one love to explore?
Big Fish Little Fish
Big Fish Little Fish is a monthly event during the school year (October -May) designed just for preschoolers and their guardians to explore the aquarium. Ages 0-5 are welcome, lessons are tailored toward 2-5 year olds. This program offers hands-on animal encounters with creatures like sea stars and sea urchins, story time, sing-a-longs, games, and crafts. We have a different educational theme each month and use this unique setting to help make learning fun.
