Puffin Rock Habitats Exhibition 19 Feb - 26 Apr 2025

Puffin Rock Habitats is an exploratory journey for young children and families through four enchanting habitats - Marine, Intertidal, Grassland and Wetland.

This immersive learning experience is led by the beloved Oona and Baba who introduce you to the rich diversity of plants and animals on Puffin Rock, and the intricate relationships within and between each habitat.

As you explore each habitat, you'll uncover exciting sensory surprises! Each habitat holds hidden adventures and activities through which we better understand what makes these places "happy homes" for all the plants, animals and also visitors like us.

Within our communities, young and old, we learn more of our natural heritage, with an aim to inspire us to take better care of nature wherever we can.

Puffin Rock Habitats is an educational project between the Heritage Council and Cartoon Saloon to promote greater awareness and understanding of Ireland's nature and biodiversity amongst families with young children through a touring exhibition, workshops and activity book. The touring exhibition is also a recipient of funding through Creative Climate Action, an initiative from the Creative Ireland Programme funded by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media in collaboration with the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications.
