Every Thursday in June and July, marine educators at the UGA Aquarium will host virtual programs designed to inspire wonder and curiosity about the coast by featuring different activities and animals. These afternoons at the aquarium will include a mix of games, art, stories and virtual animal encounters that provide fun learning experiences about the ocean. Children of all ages are welcome, but activities are designed for ages 4-8 years old with an accompanying adult.

July 2: The Flying Debris
During this program, educators will read aloud The Flying Debris by Lisa Liguori and Ed Hose as part of a story time session. This book invites readers to sail along on an adventure to find different solutions to ocean pollution with a crew of creative marine animals.
