All about octopuses is the theme for the next session of Sitka Sprouts on Tuesday, March 5.
“This is your reminder that theme for Sprouts next Tuesday will be octopuses,” Sitka Sound Science Center science education coordinator Kari Paustian said. “Outer Coast students Nicolly and James (a former OC service member with our Education program) will be co-hosting Sprouts. Our aquarist Matt Wilson will be joining our program to share some SUPER cool octopus specimens (preserved in neutral alcohol) with the littles and there will be lots of fun art and tactile activities for all! The aquarium will be open as always, along with a bonus opportunity to hunt for octopus food in the tanks.”
Sitka Sprouts is a free, weekly science education program designed for 3–5 year olds and parents that takes place from 10:30-11:30 a.m. every Tuesday at the Karsh classroom in the Sitka Sound Science Center. The aquarium is open.
