Healthy Oceans

In this activity, children are asked to investigate our oceans. Younger children are asked to look at animals that live in the sea, and what features these animals have that help them live in the water and how these differ to animals that live on the land. They are asked to ‘build’ an ocean using a tub of water and other sea-related materials. Older children are asked to investigate what it means for an ocean to be healthy by looking at waste items commonly found in our oceans, and by building a healthy ocean using a tub of water and other sea-related materials.
