July 20 is Marine Day

July 20 is known as “Marine Day.” It is a day to feel “thank you” toward the sea. The sea is big and sparkly, and it is connected to places near everyone too.

🤔 Have you ever seen the sea? What kind of sound did it make?

In the sea, there are living things like fish and shellfish. Ships travel across the sea and carry many different things for us. So the sea helps everyone’s daily life.

🤔 What kinds of things do we receive from the sea?

Marine Day is also a day to think about taking good care of the sea. We can clean the beach and take our trash home with us. Sea creatures love a clean sea too.

🤔 What can we do to keep the sea and rivers clean?

Marine Day is a day to say “thank you” to the sea. When we play in the sea, let’s take good care of sea creatures and nature. When everyone has kind feelings, the sea smiles too.
