Enjoying the current cold front? Consider exploring the world of your favorite Arctic bird?
Penguin Awareness Day is on Jan. 20—so get your kids and take them to Florida Aquarium or Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo to learn more about penguins, a native bird from Antarctica. This is a great opportunity to get everyone out of the house and see penguins in action.
