Episode 1: What is the ocean?

Let’s explore the ocean!

Join Danni on a playful trip to three ocean homes! Ripple like a cuttlefish, float like a sea otter, and crawl sideways like a ghost crab. At the Monterey Bay Aquarium, our mission is to inspire conservation of the ocean, and caring for ocean animals starts with getting to know them.

This episode is designed for kids ages two to six and encourages movement and imagination. Watch together and try the moves side by side. Afterward, keep the fun going by asking your child which animal move they liked best, or by inventing a new move for another ocean animal.
