Tadpole Time
Friday, January 14
10 am
January's Tadpole Time is for the birds! Join us as we visit the aviary, read a book: "Poop: a natural history of of the unmentionable," and make a handprint macaw craft. Tadpole Time participants also will have an opportunity to watch Peppa, the macaw, train with a member of our Aquarist staff!
Every month at Tadpole Time we'll be exploring a different environmental theme for our youngest visitors! Tadpole Time includes a story, songs and activities with time to enjoy the Flint RiverQuarium on your own after our time together.
Tadpole Time is designed especially for parents and pre-schoolers, but all ages are welcome. It's FREE with your RiverQuarium membership or with regular admission.
January Movies at the Imagination Theater
Enchanted Reef
Thursday, Friday & Saturday
10:30 am & 1:30 pm
An endangered reef, a mystery about the Moon, two fish, and the adventure of their life. “Kaluoka’hina – The Enchanted Reef” offers a gripping story, is full of humor, and teaches us in a playful way to protect our environment. Kaluoka’hina, a gloriously colorful tropical reef, is under a spell: It is undiscoverable by men. Kaluoka’hina’s colorful inhabitants have thus always lived in peace, until the volcano erupts, and the spell is broken. Now it’s up to Shorty and Jake to restore the magic of Kaluoka’hina. Their only lead: the ancient legend that tells of touching the moon.
