Tots and Tales

Bring your little explorers to the National Aquarium every Wednesday this September and October and join us on adventures that teach us about our natural world. These adventures include story time, songs, games and activities, all designed to engage fine motor skills, gross motor skills and language skills for early childhood development. We will be visiting places inside the Aquarium, as well as outside, to learn about animals and the habitats they call home. Each week is a brand-new journey, so bring the family and join us for Tots and Tales.
