This activity consists in carrying out and participating in various didactic workshops for children between 6 and 14 years of age. First they will be able to handle our submarine ROVs, which are small submersible contraptions that mimic those available in the IEO for marine research. They can be researchers for a day and simulate participation in an oceanographic campaign, classifying species. They will continue with the workshop of the sea seen from a microscope, where they will be able to observe different samples of live plankton. They will learn how to recycle plastics in our workshop "Clean plastic seas" and they will end up with a workshop for the drawing and creation of sheets related to the awareness of plastics recycling.
