The exploration of natural history doesn't have to just happen at the museum - it can happen in your home too! Join museum educators as they walk your family through science skill-building activities and ways to explore the natural world and collections. During this program, we will be joined by ocean educators Meaghan Cuddy and Lara Noren to explore biodiversity in the ocean! Come take a dive into the marine habitat of the Galapagos Islands and investigate different shark species that live there. This program is a part of the National Museum of Natural History‘s celebration of World Ocean Day focusing on Hope Spots, places that are critical to the health of our ocean around the globe. Please have the following materials ready: - A large piece of blank paper (example: poster board, blank wrapping paper, 6-8 pieces of 8.5''x11'' taped together)
- Pencil
- Your choice of coloring supplies (crayons, markers, paint, colored pencils, etc.)
