—A fun way to get kids into the swim of things when it comes to protecting the ocean is to enroll them in a club focused on watery environments. For example, the Ocean Guardian Kids Club encourages children to explore their natural surroundings and form a sense of connection to oceans and watersheds. The club was created by NOAA’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries and offers children K-8 a stimulating opportunity to be a part of a national program that encourages them to take action to protect the ocean and all living creatures in it. Members will receive a membership kit and have access to online games, word searches, activity books and the latest information about our nation’s marine sanctuaries. Visit http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/education for details. A new club for kids promotes awareness and protection of the ocean and all the creatures that live in it.
