About This Activity

Ctenophores, or comb jellies, will take center stage as young explorers learn about their unique anatomy, movement patterns, and feeding habits. These translucent creatures are found in almost every body of water worldwide! But no need to fret; although they look like jellyfish, they do not sting. We’ll learn how to distinguish between comb jellies and true jellies, explain the function of colloblasts, and even develop snorkeling skills, all while gaining a deeper appreciation for the delicate beauty of these organisms. Did we mention they are bioluminescent?!
