A Real Parent's Story
My son touched a sturgeon and gasped like it was magic
“Our 4-year-old dipped his hand in the touch pool expecting to be scared. A baby sturgeon swam right into his palm.”
Read full story
The touch pool at Prague Aquarium is genius. Instead of starfish they have small freshwater sturgeon and crayfish. The staff tell you exactly how to hold your hand. Our son was nervous, then a sturgeon swam directly into his palm and just sat there. He didn't move for a full minute, staring at this ancient-looking fish. Now he wants to be a marine biologist.
