As I have been working on creating more beach themed items, I realized that many of the items within the clip art were actual items I could go to my local Walmart and buy.
Well, of course that got me to thinking as to how I would use some of the items for additional learning purposes (kind of the point, right?)

Well, I ended up with 20 activities in all – and all using items such as beach balls, sand pails, shells, and hula hoops! I created a Beach Theme Activities Pack with all the ideas so you could use them in your beach themed classroom (or during a beach unit) even if it was 10 below and you were buried under a foot of snow!

I took 3 of the fun ideas and made a little sampler freebie for you to enjoy as well!

I hope you have as much fun doing the activities as I did coming up with them!
What other fun summer beach learning ideas could you add to this list? Feel free to add it in a comment below. We love having shore ideas galore!
