Bunk down among the sharks, fish, jellies and other creatures as The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk hosts a fun Family Sleepover! It’s open to children ages 5 & older, with an accompanying parent or caregiver over age 18. After check-in at 6 p.m. and a tasty dinner of chicken tenders, fries and penne, the Aquarium will fill your family’s evening with a fun- and fact-filled behind-the-scenes tour, an IMAX® movie, snacks and themed crafts. “Lights out” is at 10 p.m. Participants sleep in sleeping bags (BYOSB) throughout the Aquarium galleries. Air mattresses are allowed for adults. Breakfast the next morning is at 8 a.m., followed by a private seal show. You’ll be on your way home by 9 a.m. on Saturday the 30th. Space is limited to 100 participants and expected to fill up fast.
