A series of stories and animal encounters in March at The Maritime Aquarium in Norwalk encourages preschoolers’ natural curiosity while also providing opportunities for parent-child fun. The Mommy-and-Me-style programs, called “Seal Pups,” are for children accompanied by a parent or caregiver. Each meets from 1 to 1:45 p.m. and consists of an up-close meeting with a live animal, a story that relates to the topic and other activities inspired by the marine animals.
Choose a topic, and then choose between the weekday or weekend presentation. Topics and dates are:
• “Sharks!” – Wed., March 16 or Sat., March 19
• “Turtles!” – Wed., March 23 or Sat., March 26
• “Body Coverings!” – Wed., March 30 or Sat., April 2
The price per session is $12 per child ($10 for Aquarium members) and does not include Aquarium admission.
Children must be accompanied by a caregiver.
