Ocean Unit For Kids

If you want to keep the ocean fun going, then why not create an ocean unit for kids? We’ve got some great ideas to keep the kids learning and having fun!

Let your kids explore new worlds and learn with books that are fun to read! Reading aloud not only helps kids develop their vocabulary, but use their imagination as well. Those are some of the reasons we recommend starting a unit off with books!

The Rainbow Fish -This is a classic children’s book with a wonderful message for children. In it, a fish learns to share his favorite possession, his glittery scales, with his friends!
