John Ford June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 Shelby and I are taking Gavin to the Aquarium for the first time tomorrow. Its been awhile since I have been there and Ive never been there with a kid. Is there anything you all recommend we stop and check out for toddlers? Sometimes It gets busy there and I would hate to overlook something that would have been cool to see for him. Thanks!

Jason Rhoads June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 You are right about that, and when you factor in parking. . . there goes frag money for the month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheresTheReef June 17, 2015 Share June 17, 2015 My kids love the dolphins above all else. Try and go during a feeding time. Also enjoy the sharks, jelly fish, and huge freshwater fish/turtles. Concentrate on a few things and take your time. You will enjoy it more that way. I bought a membership last year since it came out cheaper if we went at least twice in a year.

John Ford June 18, 2015 Author Share June 18, 2015 It's a good time of you get there early. People enjoy right as your walking up to the tanks jumping right in front of you The touch tanks are new. There used to be one big circle of I'm remembering correctly but now it's set up different and they added a jelly fish touch tank. Gavin was a bit overwhelmed so it was a quick trip. He was saying bigggggg Fish! On the way home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members have a separate entrance and you just waltz in when ever you want to. I have advised out of town friends who's time is valuable to just pay the extra for membership just to avoid the line. It goes to a good cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
