Calling all Scouts! Join us for a day of exploring animals, science and careers at the aquarium and beyond. Leave with either a one-of-a-kind Shedd Aquarium patch or an oceanography merit badge. Non-Scouts are also welcome.
How would you study a leopard shark’s diet? Visit animals at Shedd while practicing research techniques that marine biologists use to answer questions about animals and their habitats.
During these special workshops designed for Scouts, meet animals, get hands on with games and activities, and explore this unique career. Every Scout will leave with a one-of-a-kind Shedd Aquarium Marine Biologist patch.
Do you wonder what’s beneath the waves? Do you want to learn more about our aquatic world? Explore with us as we take a deep dive into the different branches of oceanography. We’ll cover topics ranging from ocean topography, water chemistry, and—of course—aquatic life! Guided by Shedd experts, you’ll complete prerequisites beforehand, and leave with the Boy Scouts of America Oceanography Merit Badge!
Meet aquatic animals and get hands-on with games and activities during these special workshops, inspired by the Daisy Girl Scout Animal Observer badge. Every Scout will leave with a one-of-a-kind Shedd Aquarium patch. Together, we will answer the question, “What can we learn from observing animals and their habitats?”
