Overview
Rain Forest Explorers turns your preschoolers' classroom into a jungle excursion vehicle. Led by Aquarium educators, students will explore life in the Amazon rain forest, from organisms dwelling on the forest floor to those living in the treetops! They'll learn about animals that live in the Amazon rain forest, what layers form the forest itself, and what we can do to protect this unique and vital ecosystem, though we're half a world away.
After a brief introduction to the rain forest, its inhabitants, and its conservation, our educators will send your students on a journey through multiple learning stations. The students' expedition will end as they gather for rain forest story time led by our staff.
