From classroom teachers to librarians to the kids themselves — here's what people say after a visit from the Whalemobile.
There is no better way to help students understand how animal structures help them survive than sitting inside a life-size whale as an expert explains it all. My students were riveted.

We were unsure about adding more virtual to virtual learning, but the Whalemobile show was set apart. Cynde's upbeat, interactive show kept students engaged the whole time.

The Whalemobile was terrific! Our group’s age range was quite large and the teacher easily engaged each group that came through the whale. A must for anyone who is looking for a fun, memorable and educational activity!
