Reef Life and Kids to the Rescue (TM), the flagship program, is a 6-module 3rd-5th grade course introducing kids to the amazing life across the reef, ecosystems, and ecology, and providing a foundation to experience and participate in conservation and restoration.

This experience will empower every newly deputized AquaKiD (TM) to use their imagination to ignite change and make a difference in our natural community environments.

Below are examples of lessons illustrating a concept from the course, to show elements of content, audio, video, and some of the curriculum that are covered in the full course, Reef Life and KiDs to the Rescue.

The program is led by a "guide", Scuba Tia, who provides a friendly and enthusiastic companion throughout the course.
