Outline: Jellyfish education
There are only 5 types of jellyfish in Irish Waters:
1. Compass (white or see though with a compass patern)
2. Lion's Mane
(the big ugly red ones and the small little yellow ones)
3. Common Jellyfish (moon jellyfish) *non-stinging
4. Dome Jellyfish (rare big solidwhite ones) *non stinging
5. Blue jellyfish (like the name. Blue)
Common Jellyfish don't sting and really take the fear of jellyfish away.
Above: These are Common or Moon Jellyfish
1. Pickup a moon jellyfish. They cannot sting. (but don't rub them in your eyes)
2. Give it a name and put it in a bucket.
3. Let people pet it and pick it up.
4. Explain how this jellyfish can only eat plankton and not the lack of huge tenticles. Note the four petal shapes so they don't mistake it for another jellyfish.
4. Send it back to it's mammy and daddy.
