Cassy & Marisa's camp: Day 2

Jul 23, 2019 at 7:38 PM by Marisa Yip

Hello Diving Dolphins & Predator parents: 

Today was another arrayzing day at Aquacamps!

What we did today:

We visited our animals in the tropics gallery and learned some fun facts about our favourite animals like the lionfish and black tipped reef sharks. 

We played some fun games like Octopus, Sneaky Statues and Sea Star tag. 

We learned about the internal anatomy of a herring and got to dissect one! 

After lunch, we went to the wetlab. We learned about sea anemones, sea urchins, sea stars, sea cucumbers, crabs and molluscs. We even got to hold a hermit crab and a sea urchin. 

We made paper plate walruses with Marisa and aquariums with Cassy to finish off our day. 

Questions to ask your camper: 

- What was your camper's favourite animal in the tropics and what fun facts did they learn about that animal? 

- How are sea urchins, sea stars, and sea cucumbers related? 

Can't wait for another splashtastic day tomorrow!

- Cassy & Marisa
