Take a deep dive out of this Fandex deck for kids and explore 49 of the ocean’s coolest creatures.Meet Cuvier’s beaked whale, a mammal that holds the record for holding its breath underwater— 3 hours, 42 minutes! Giant kelp, which can grow up to 2 feet every day— that’s right, 2 feet! And the ancient coelacanth—often called a “living fossil”—which has changed very little in 400 million years and was once assumed to be extinct. With bold illustrations, each card in Fandex Kids: Oceans includes information about the creature’s size, habits and habitat, plus bonus Fin Facts.
