Children connect with nature by discovering animals and the natural environment at Ocean Park.
Different sensory stimulation activities help build their confidence and cognitive development. Through art activities, children are encouraged to make use of what they have learnt, and express their thoughts. Once a month, a “messy play” activity is held to enhance their sensory experience and improve their hand-eye coordination. It’s fun!
Features
