Dive into a season of discovery, adventure, and free family fun during Summer at the Lagoon at Manatee Lagoon. Children across Palm Beach County can participate in the Get Wild About Wildlife virtual camp, Manatee Tales: Adventures with Mia and Friends, and educational Lectures at the Lagoon.
Wild About Wildlife Virtual Summer Camp
Now in its seventh year, the Wild About Wildlife Virtual Summer Camp will include week-long virtual camps with half-day afternoon schedules filled with animal observations, experiments, games, crafts, and educational lessons hosted by educators from the Mote Marine Laboratory and other leading environmental organizations.
Camp sessions will feature a mix of live, pre-recorded, and do-at-your-own-pace content. Lessons are geared towards children ages 6 to 9, but other ages are welcome to participate. The first week runs June 15–19; the second week runs July 20–24.
The virtual summer camp is free for families and individuals, with a voluntary donation option to support the environmental and educational missions of the organizations that help make this program possible. Summer camp organizations can also register to access the content for $50 per week, which includes login access for one device.
Manatee Tales: Adventures with Mia and Friends
Every Saturday from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., a Manatee Master will guide guests on a short, kid-friendly tour of Manatee Lagoon, followed by an engaging reading session in our immersive classroom. Children will hear captivating stories about marine life from a selection of educational books. After the story, kids will have the exciting opportunity to create and take home a fun craft inspired by the day’s book.
The program is available for children ages 3 and up. Advance registration is required.
