This engaging program introduces little ones to ocean-inspired sensory experiences that foster early development and parent-child bonding and plant the seeds that can ignite a love for the world around them. \n\n\n\nThere will be a structured schedule of activities each session. Each session features a fun mix of sensory play\, sing-along circles\, themed crafts\, and interactive story time. Modeled after our popular Tiny Tots program\, this pop-up experience provides a safe and welcoming space for toddlers to explore while parents connect and learn about other family-friendly offerings from Ocean Institute. \n\n\n\nLocation: Rivian South Coast Theater\, 160 South Coast Highway\, Laguna Beach\n\n\n\nRecommended ages 0-2 years old.Free to the Public! \n\n\n\nAugust Theme:\n\n\n\nHydrothermal Vents\n\n\n\nWhat goes on at the bottom of the ocean? The animals that live down there on the ocean floor have much different ways of life than the animals at the surface of the ocean. It’s really cold\, the pressure is high\, and the lava-like layer underneath the Earth’s crust creates systems called hydrothermal vents. Join us to learn more! \n\n\n\nRSVP

This talk explores the challenges these organizations have faced over time\, the pressures they encounter in an era of environmental and cultural change\, and how a clear sense of purpose\, storytelling\, and public trust can help navigate an uncertain future. \n\n\n\nPricing:\n\n\n\n$10  – General \n\n\n\nFREE – Members \n\n\n\nFREE – Students (with Valid ID) \n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nAbout Susan:\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSusan Sirota is a maritime historian and nonprofit leader with more than 30 years of experience bringing West Coast maritime stories to life for broad public audiences.
