The Living Planet Aquarium

I took Jaxson to his first aquarium visit with my family on Memorial Day. Although I think he is probably still a little young to really enjoy seeing everything, Jaxson absolutely loved looking at all the brightly colored fish and seeing all the water. It was so fun to watch him stare at everything and just soak it all in.

We decided to compare Jaxson to the size of the different penguins. When I tried to show him the penguins that were swimming around, I think he was more interested in the water than in the actual penguins. This kid loves the water!

Jaxson was pretty interested in the area where you could reach in and touch the rays. For the most part, it was a little too deep for him to reach, but we were finally able to get one close enough that he was able to touch.

Staring at the fish...Jaxson's favorite were definitely the ones that were colorful.

All in all, it was a fun trip. I think that Jaxson will really enjoy it once he gets a little older (and we go when it isn't quite as crowded). Now I really want to take him to the zoo - I have a feeling that he will love watching all the animals!
