Who knew horses lived under the sea....

This week we have been learning all about seahorses. We have discovered they are very interesting animals! Just a few facts about seashores we have learned...enjoy!

Facts:

1.Daddy sea horses carry the eggs for the female in his pouch near his belly button. When the sea horses are born, there are generally about 1,500 babies! 

2. In the morning the male and female horses dance with each other every morning. Even if she has to leave, she still returns home for a morning dance! 

3. Sea horses are so small....we unfortunately can't ride them. :( However they only grow to be no bigger than 14 inches tall. Some are even as small as 2 centimeters! 

If you have any cool facts, pictures, websites, or videos we would LOVE to learn more!
