Keep the Ocean Clean – Music Videos and Companion Lesson

For Teachers and Parents!

Make every day an ocean protection day! Let us help you prepare your children for World Oceans Day and International Coastal Clean-Up Day (and a lifetime of ocean conservation) with our music videos and companion lesson, “Keep the Ocean Clean”. The song is rockin’ and educational. Watch our videos below.

Let’s make International Coastal Clean-Up Day a month-long event!

Dear Friends and Ocean-Lovers,

Join us in making September a safe Coastal Clean-Up month! Each year, International Coastal Clean-Up Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of September.

“I Almost Kissed a Butterfly”. Watch my hand motions in the chorus while you sing and move your hands along with me. Perhaps you can color your own butterfly to use. Or make up your own hand motions! Enjoy learning about butterfly and caterpillar behavior and then blow a kiss to the next butterfly you see in your neighborhood!
