    I would absolutely love to win this four pack! All of my kids have birthdays coming up very soon, so I think this would be a very fun, interactive thing to do with all of them. Teaching them about our water creatures and spending time with them sounds like it would be a blast! Thank you for the opportunity! 🙂

    My kids love the aquarium. Especially my 5 year old with autism. The aquarium has always been his favorite.

  39. Carey says

    My kids would love to visit Sea life. I read the Dory book to my son each night and he loves it, especially because his name is hank and that is the name of the octopus in the story. I can’t wait to take him to the aquarium to see a real octopus!

    Hello,
    Getting free passes to the aquarium would be awesome (Since my kids ask to go all the time). I moved to Charlotte with my kids about a year ago. Due to a tight budget (& search for some stability), we have not been able to venture out and explore Charlotte as I would like.

  278. kathy Adolf says

    I’m always looking for ways to show my family the best of Charlotte!! We would love to be able to explore the aquarium, and with my little one, the colors and sounds would give him the best experience!!
