KidZone at Adventure Aquarium, WIN 4 Tickets to Adventure Aquarium Giveaway

by EJ on 06/13/12

Earlier this spring, Adventure Aquarium debuted its new KidZone, an interactive exhibit that encourages kids to play and explore as much as they want. While Adventure Aquarium was largely interactive already, with the Touch-a-Shark pool and the Stingray Beach Club, this new and very sizable section for kids takes hands-on underwater fun to a whole new level. Kidzone at Adventure Aquarium gets the Four Little Monsters seal of approval and here's why.

Kidzone is specifically designed to appeal to kids six and under and invites little ones to get up close and personal with the watery world. Every tank is at eye level for kids, so parents can give their arms a break. Kidzone offers adventure for tikes with the guidance of the Aquapals: Gill the shark, Lizzie the Hippo, Shelldon the sea turtle and Bobbi the penguin.

My monsters jumped right in, banging away on huge whale drums, strumming chords on chime walls and hopping aboard a river boat. In the center of it all, a huge Banyan tree with a trunk full of hanging foam cylinders for hiding, pushing and playing.

We all took turns climbing beneath a large aquarium tank and sticking our heads into a pop-up dome that allowed us to view the fish all around us, as if we were there inside the tank. It was especially neat to view the flashlight fish this way.

There were many new tanks and terrariums to explore, all at the perfect height for the kids.

Touch tanks offered us the opportunity to feel the shells of blue spiny lobsters and horseshoe crabs. A touch tank built to look like a tropical tidal pool included some of the most amazing and beautiful shrimp called fire and coral banded shrimp. The kids giggled as they pet and caressed a chocolate chip sea star that looked just like a cookie and they oohed and aahed at the striking colors of the sea apples.

Kidzone was a very active place, with kids running and exploring in every direction.

Kidzone was a great place to work out all those remaining wiggles before we headed on over to the Shark Realm, where things are a lot more calm and subdued. On the way, ML and LT received a kiss from a hippo.
