ElasmOcean is committed, among other things, to explaining the ocean to children. This is particularly successful on-site in kindergartens and schools. We are now introducing a read-aloud story to take children on an exciting journey into this unknown world. Young people then usually understand very quickly what needs to be done about the burdens older generations place upon the ocean and its inhabitants.
"Albert und die Scuba" is a compelling marine story for kindergartens and primary schools. Albert, a clever octopus, lives peacefully with his friends in a marine protected area. One day, strange creatures appear in the coral reef, destroying the nest of the three-tooth pufferfish couple and, to everyone's horror, abducting the reef's most amiable inhabitants, the seahorse couple Hottehüh. How Albert and his friends manage to work together to rescue the two and drive away the strange creatures (for now?) is what we are now reading to kindergarten children and pupils in the first and second years of primary school. Along the way, there is much worth knowing to discover about the reef inhabitants and the ocean - alongside our collection of physical objects used on-site to bring the story to life.
The reading time is approximately 30 minutes, with the supporting programme totalling around 90 minutes. The minimum age is estimated to be around five years.
