This book is suitable for ages 3 to 7 years. Children experience hands-on learning at its best on this sea-life adventure! Its features are: Children "visit" seven different ocean habitats where they identify (and make) a prickly sea urchin, and find out where baby sea turtles hatch, who lives at the coral reef, and what swims in the polar seas!; Children create crafts to help them to see, feel, and understand what is unique about each creature - move colorful reef-fish in "schools", put on your sea-otter mask, snuggle up with a soft sock manatee and paint a colorful krill cloud; children explore the science and sensations of the sea through creative play, games, and simple experiments - take a tide-pool bath, crawl like a crab, make up a fish dance, bend your back like a seal, walk on stilts like a sea urchin, make a floating sandwich-bag sea jelly, and investigate starfish suction power with a straw!
