Have Fun In Mississippi Aquarium Coastal Science Camps
As a grade school teacher and lover of sea creatures one of the things I like doing most is bringing my students to the J.L. Scott Aquarium in Mississippi. This aquarium may be small in comparison to the more well-funded aquariums in America, but the kids really love looking at the fishes and other sea animals found in the 40+ fish tanks that comprise the aquarium.Every September to October the Mississippi aquarium offers Coastal Science Camps to children in grades 4-12. These camps can be comprised of 20 up to 75 students. There are only two batches for the camp each year, so I always make sure to make reservations for my children a few months before the actual camp.
The camp is handled by trained specialists in the fields of maritime science, marine biology, marine botany, and so much more. They will engage the children in various laboratory and hand-on activities that will enable them to learn more about marine life and why they should help protect it from damage and possible extinction
Your Kid Should Not Miss The Beach And Barrier Island Camp
It is good to establish in children a love for Mother Nature and a responsibility towards the environment early on, so that they can carry on these values when they grow older. This is the main reason why I bring my students of field trips to the J.L Scott Aquarium each year. Through the years, I have realized that kids like the Beach and Barrier Island Camp the best.This is a 2-day camp in which the kids will be able to explore marshes, ride on a ship, walk along beaches all while learning more about sea life. Don’t worry as there are always plenty of safety marshals aside from the instructors that will be accompanying your kids. All meals will be included in your payment for the camp.
Speaking of payment, there is a way by which you can get discounts for admission into the aquarium as well as for the camps. By using Mississippi Aquarium coupons, you can save a lot on aquarium expenses. If you have any questions, email me at mississippiaquariums@gmail.com.
