## About

Turtle Talk is the Discovery Center's weekly children's program about turtles. Each week rotates through hands-on activities such as interactive turtle demonstrations, crafts and discovery play, so repeat visitors find something new. It is a short add-on to a museum visit, aimed at sparking curiosity in young learners.
