Get ready to explore ocean depths with some very dear friends. Little fans of the PBS Kids series “Splash and Bubbles” will find plenty to celebrate at “Splash and Bubbles: Dive In, Lend a Fin,” which opens Sept. 23 at Upcountry History Museum. The traveling exhibit, making its only South Carolina stop, will continue through Jan. 28, 2024.

This is a hands-on, STEM exhibit – here’s a taste of what kids can do:

  • explore a sunken ship to learn the similarities and differences between artificial reefs and real reefs,

  • navigate the Kelp Forest and help keep it clean by collecting green algae from the ocean floor,

  • create a glow-in-the-dark jellyfish and gaze upon a life-size 12 foot-wide Japanese Spider Crab, 

  • learn fun “Fin Facts” at Flo’s School of Fish as you balance and stack colorful rocks,

  • discover a variety of sharks and create a shark hat,

  • draw your own fish and add it to a collaborative collage.
