Sea World Homeschool Day

We were so excited to check out Sea World’s Homeschool Day.  The tickets were very inexpensive and the place was PACKED!  We had a good time, but I’m not sure we’ll be going back next year.
We made a quick trip through the aquarium and spent some time at the seals.

The highlight of our day was finding Ms. Missy in her department.  The kids loved the hands-on opportunities away from the crowds.
First, we met Wilson, the armadillo.

Then we met this cockatoo and had turns holding her!  Ellie’s courage increased as the picture-taking went on.

Reef didn’t need any coaxing.  He is his father’s child.

Jonas didn’t want anything to do with the bird.  Ms. Tiffany wanted a turn too.

Then we checked out the lemurs and got to feed them too!

Jonas liked them but still didn’t want to feed them.  Maybe next time we visit.
