Aquarium of the Pacific

Spineless Wonders
The incredible invertebrate octopus is the focus of this class. Students will investigate all the amazing adaptations of this spineless wonder, from suction cups to boneless bodies. Participants will observe a live octopus in the galleries as well as touch some relatives of the octopus. Students will create their own bouncing bottle octopus to play with at home.

Preschool Programs are designed for young children to independently explore marine life. Each class offers hands-on animal touch time, a craft project, story time, Aquarium animal observation, a snack, and activities relating to the topic.
