I talk with Mermaid River and Mermaid Amira, from Wands and Wishes Mermaids. They travel around the US, visiting aquariums to help entertain the public and raise awareness about the wonderful creatures in our ocean and fresh water ecosystems. We caught up with them during a break at the Newport Aquarium to learn about swimming with dinosaur fish, how zebra sharks are the golden retrievers of the ocean, and what they want people to learn about their underwater homes. Aquarium life seems pretty sweet, especially when your BFFs are also in your mer-pod. And, because you asked, we got some mermaid beauty tips for maximum under-the-sea style!
