Why not play sand games?
Sand is magical. You can draw on it. You can build things with it. Trace out a dartboard on the sand and toss rocks or shells to see who can get a bull’s-eye. Play “beach bowling” by making pins from sand and rolling a ball to see who can smash them. Draw a tic-tac-toe square or a hopscotch court. Make a sand giant. Trace your shadow in the sand and decorate it with shells and rocks. Play a scavenger hunt. It’s jolly fun! Make up a list of things you can find on a beach like sea shells, rocks, seaweed or tiny crabs. See who is the fastest at finding everything on their list. This game is really fun. It teaches your kids about sea life too. Splash! Make up new water games… If you got squirt guns and beach balls – you can have a race. Draw a starting line in the sand and set the beach balls there. Then use your squirt gun to push the ball along with water. See who can go the fastest. How about doing some arts and crafts? Use the sea treasures washed up to the shore to create art projec
