Children ages 6 to 12 can explore marine biology through hands-on activities during the Mote SEA Drop-In Science program. The October sessions focus on a seasonal theme, investigating the biology and function of the ocean’s “spooky slime.” Held in state-of-the-art teaching laboratories, this interactive class allows young participants to conduct guided experiments and learn directly from marine educators. The program requires chaperones to remain present, ensuring a collaborative family learning environment. It offers an engaging way for students to dive into specialized oceanic topics beyond standard aquarium exhibits.
