Last week the weather was amazing after co-op. As usual when it isn’t raining, we headed to the beach park for lunch and play. This time, the tide was further out than we have ever seen it and the kids were in for a treat- crabs!
All the kids had fun finding crabs and watching them. Thanks to a class I took in college, I was able to teach them how to tell if the crab was a boy or girl crab…
Strawberry enjoyed looking at the crabs, but she was more interested in finding shells.
I love that we have gone to the same park and beach every week throughout the year. We have watched the seasons change, watched the tides come in and go out, watched the beach rearrange itself- adding new drift wood and taking some away, and seen some beautiful creatures. What a blessing to be able to explore every week.
What fun! We love family trips to the beach and still have one hermit crab living in a fishtank from a beach trip almost two years ago.
