Description
Home to colorful reefs, strange
and exotic creatures, deep canyons, and enormous mountain ranges, the world’s
oceans cover 70 percent of the planet and a world of extremes.
In Discover the Oceans: The World’s Largest Ecosystem, kids explore the oceans as if they are
there, learning how to navigate, fi nd food, and protect themselves from the elements and predators.
Kids see how plants and animals adapt and survive on the water’s surface all the way down to the
ocean fl oor and everywhere in between. “Try This” ideas that encourage active learning can be done
anywhere—you don’t have to be in or on the ocean. Using common household supplies and recycled
items, the activities range from making a dip net to catch fish, to creating a homemade diving bell, to
finding the North Star in the sky, and much more.
On this marine adventure kids will learn about the history of human exploration of the ocean, its
delicate balance of nature, and the stunning secrets hiding beneath the waters of the world’s oceans.
