Wild Kratts®: Ocean Adventure! Exhibit Closing
Wild Kratts®: Ocean Adventure!, a brand-new temporary exhibit at the Clay Center, immerses young explorers in whole body explorations of ocean habitats and fascinating creatures. Using Wild Kratts technology and the powers of science and teamwork, visitors join the Wild Kratts team to solve problems, help animals, and foil villains' plans. The exhibit explores age-appropriate science concepts central to marine animals' lives through three main habitats: Seashore (tidal pool exploration, anemone crawling, lobster hunting), Shallow Sea (dolphin naming, shark cleaning station), and Deep Sea (dragonfish hunting in dark depths, ocean floor creatures). Recommended for children ages 3-9 with a tot spot for children under three. Produced by Minnesota Children's Museum in collaboration with Kratt Brothers Company.
