Aquarium Education Program

Preschool Program: “O” is for Otter

We're focusing on the sea otter!

Foster a love for the ocean in your four- to five-year-old child in our series of preschool programs designed to keep even the wiggliest child engaged and entertained.

Each 2-hour class allows children to explore and learn about marine life independently from their parent through games, crafts, tours, snack, animal touch time, and more.

Please note that this is a child only program. If you are interested in joining your preschool child in a class, please see our Saturday Family Fun programs.

“O” is for Otter:

The smallest marine mammal is also the furriest and arguably the cutest. Find out how a sea otter spends its day, both above and below the surface of the water. During this 2-hour program your four- to five-year-old child will:

  • Find out the five characteristics that mammals share
  • Take a guided tour of the Northern Pacific gallery
  • Learn the importance of the kelp forest in a sea otters life
  • Eat like a sea otter
  • Make their own sea otter puppet to take home
  • Touch animals in our private classroom touch pools
  • Enjoy a snack of goldfish crackers and juice
