Description of program: The program begins with an introduction to sharks in general and Great White Sharks in particular. Students are chosen from the audience to demonstrate how sharks are adapted to their environment. Specimens and models are used to help demonstrate how sharks are different from bony fish and how sharks find their food using their seven senses. With the gigantic jaws from a 20 foot long Great White Shark, your students see how sharks continually grow and replace their teeth.

Kidbucks Game Show Kidbucks game show is a thrilling game show where randomly selected members of the audience, participate in wild and crazy games. Unlike many "trivia based" game shows where contestants ring a bell and answer a question, Kidbucks is an "action" based game in which the contestants are competing in challenging and entertaining games of a physical nature. The final winner is the Grand champion and spends 30 seconds inside the kidbucks wind chamber. The chamber is a plexiglass box in which a large fan circulates "Kidbucks". As the bucks swirl about the chamber the contestant grabs as many as he or she can. The bucks are tallied and redeemed for a prize based on how many bucks are collected.
