A Real Parent's Story
Watching him hand-feed a shark changed his view of animals
“My 5-year-old was scared of water creatures. The aquarium shark feeding gave him a pole. His face when the shark glided up - pure joy.”
Read full story
After a crab pinched him, Leo would not go near tide pools. We signed up for nurse shark feeding. A 4-foot nurse shark swam up and took the fish gently. He spent the rest of the day petting starfish.
