Sea Squirts Program

SEA SQUIRTS

The Sea Squirts Program introduces marine life to children ages 3-4 years and 5-6 years and one accompanying adult.

Through our curriculum-based programming, we offer students some of their first, up-close investigations into Florida’s amazing coastal ecosystems and what it means to be a scientist using outdoor exploration, animal observations, arts and crafts, stories and games.

Our Spring 2025 Sea Squirts is held every Wednesday
