The Aquarium of the Pacific is one of the places that my kids never get bored with all the different marine life to learn about. There are always new exhibits and activities every month where everyone can have a blast. This month, the Aquarium of the Pacific celebrates kids at the 15th Annual International Children’s Festival. The festival focuses on the amazing talents of children of many cultures including West African, Mexican, Pacific Islander, Cambodian, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Persian, Irish, Slovak, and Czech dance performances.
Enjoy performances by a childrenβs choir and martial arts demonstrations. Kids of all ages can participate in an international percussion circle, Japanese origami, Native American crafts, and Pacific Islander traditional childrenβs games. Everyone is encouraged to celebrate the children in their lives and children around the world with this special annual event.
