Join us in learning more about our oceans and ocean science!
Your mini-oceanographers will go on a journey to the deep blue sea with six different projects. They’ll make their own “motion ocean” while learning about density and ocean wave formation, design coral reef bubble paintings, “save” felt sea life caught in nets, make glowing jellyfish for bath time, and more!
This Discovery Box celebrates ocean science, exploration, thinking, questioning, and creativity with fun projects to engage your kids for hours!

The ocean is in trouble and human activity threatens marine ecosystems that are vital to the health of our ocean and life on earth.
As a critical first responder to these threats, The Marine Mammal Center is leading the field in ocean conservation through marine mammal rescue, veterinary medicine, science, and education. Marine mammals are ecosystem indicators, and these animals provide insights into human and ocean health threats. They are taking action today to support a network of scientists to protect our shared ocean environment for future generations.
