Shark Week Is Here – Let’s Dive Into Science! 🦈

Did you know Shark Week is the longest-running cable TV event in history? Started in 1988, it’s a full week of celebrating sharks—raising awareness, busting myths, and sharing jaw-some facts about these amazing ocean predators.

At Mad Science, we use Shark Week as a chance to spark curiosity about marine biology and ecosystems. It’s not just about teeth and thrills—it’s a perfect opportunity to get kids excited about:

- Ocean science & animal adaptations
- How sharks help keep our oceans healthy
- STEM experiments that dive into buoyancy, senses & survival
- Creative projects like “design your own shark” or building fins!

Whether your child is fascinated by fins or just loves fun science facts, Mad Science helps turn that excitement into real learning through hands-on experiments and discovery.

🌟 Let’s use Shark Week to inspire the next generation of marine scientists and ocean protectors!

At Mad Science, we love using moments like this to show kids how science connects to their everyday lives. From learning about the sun’s energy to building solar-powered gadgets, science is everywhere—and it’s pretty cool.
