Let’s go on a family adventure! 

The Early Learning Coalition of Hillsborough County (ELCHC), in partnership The Florida Aquarium, Glazer Children’s Museum, Zoo Tampa, and MOSI is dedicated to enhancing reading, science, and mathematics proficiency among preschoolers aged 3-5. This is achieved through engaging play-based learning activities. The iSpy Tampa Bay Program offers a unique platform for children to actively participate in science and nature-based play, both within the classroom and in their home. This program not only cultivates a natural sense of curiosity but also amplifies vocabulary and ignites imaginative thinking, both the children and teachers participating and up to 4 family members may accompany the child or teachers for each visit. For more information and eligibility, email iSpy@elchc.org
