Learn From Earth: All About Surf | Storytime in the Garden at the Lightner Museum

Join a Lightner Educator and special guest, Nicole Miller, for Storytime in the Garden as we read Nicole’s book Learn from Earth All About Surf! This children’s book aims to educate young readers about the science behind surfing. It explains how factors like wind, tides, and sea movement create ocean swells, allowing them to understand the natural forces that generate waves perfect for riding at the beach. Following the book reading, a hands-on experiment and a craft will center on the fun of planet Earth.
