Because just as the ocean can inspire a deep love of environmentalism, science, and conservation, it can also inspire whimsy and imagination and that's pretty important, too. But many of these movies gives a look at underwater life that can't be achieved on our own, from deep dives to close encounters with sharks. There's a lot you can do to keep your child's love of the life aquatic going, from going tide-pooling to making a trip to your local library or aquarium.
