To the Beach We Go






 

To the Beach We Go

[20 Minutes]

Whether you're on the way to the beach or just pretending, here are some great "sandy" activities to enjoy together.


What to do:

  1. Sing this rhyme on the way to the beach or when you pretend you are going to the beach. Sing this song together (Tune: "A-Hunting We Will Go")
    It's to the beach we go,
    We won't find any snow;
    We'll swim and float,
    And fish from a boat -
    I can't wait 'til we go!
  2. If packing a pretend beach bag, invite your child to list everything he would need for a trip to the beach. Keep asking "What else" or "What if" questions. Sometimes it's fun to ask silly questions such as "What about mittens?"
  3. End this activity with a "sand"-wich for lunch.

Let's Talk: Ideas to Explore Together.

  • Is it easy to remember everything you need to go to the beach?
  • Do you like singing songs? Why?

Useful information:

While you are having fun together, this activity helps your child develop language skills.
