“SEA”ing the WORLD in Utah…

So Wednesday afternoon, my good friend Jamie, calls me up informs me some animals from Sea World are at her BANK (Yeah, random I know), and so we are off for an adventure I am sure my kids will not forget.
When we arrived, they were having a show, and explained about the animals,
The boys watched with such interest!

Kookaburra:

Simon:

Lemur:

Look at those teeth! I think she said they belonged to a whale:

Then we waited in line for a few minutes, in line, headed upstairs,

and got a hands on experience with many of the animals.
Petting Simon:


Pac Man Frog, that Tucker really loved:

If you look in the background, you can see the penguin. I am not sure if this was penny or pete, but either way, the boys stood and watched it for a while. (You couldn’t pet it, but they boys didn’t mind. They were VERY close to a penguin!)

Ever since the PBS Kids Show Big, Big World, the boys care about sloths. Here is one we met:

Petting a tortoise:

They also gave them kids there own shamu stuffed whale.
All the boys watching the show with their stuffed animals:

Truman was fascinated by the presentation–Love the expression on his face:

Since Wednesday, we have watched Utube clips of Shamu, Tucker and Truman have checked out books from the library about animals that live in the sea, especially whales, and have colored many pictures of dolphins and sea life.
I love exposing my children to new things!
