HERMIT CRABS & HABITATS • KINDERGARTEN
From the classroom to the wild, this program begins with a fun activity based on the book “House for a Hermit Crab”. Students learn about habitats, then build a home for a crab that will live in their classroom. Finally, students take a field trip to Cape Lookout State Park to explore three ecosystems, including the hermit crab's habitat.
