"A" is 21 months old.
This week, we read lots of beach and ocean books and did some of the following activities. I always gather more than I can use, so I can save the others for later! On Friday, we went to a local beach where she got to throw rocks in the water and walk in the sand.
Books:
Spot Goes to the Beach by Eric Hill
How Will We Get to the Beach? by Brigitte Luciani and Eve Tharlet
Way Down Deep in the Deep Blue Sea by Jan Peck
All You Need for a Beach by Alice Schertle
Who's in the Ocean by Dorothea DePrisco Wang
Crafts: (We actually didn't do any crafts, but here are some good ideas!)
Tissue Paper Rainbow Fish (from Our Crafts 'n Things)

Other Resources:
Beach Centers from The Mailbox Preschool - June/July 2009, pp. 44-47
