20 Beach Themed Activities for Kids!

A vacation or even a day trip to the beach is a load of fun for the whole family! Unfortunately, most of us can’t live at the seaside all the time. But what better way to let your kids enjoy the sand and sun at home, than with beach themed crafts and activities!

The majority of these projects are for inside play, but there’s a few that are perfect for the backyard. There are plenty of chances for hands-on fun and learning with these 20 beach themed activities I’ve picked out.

Kids will be able to stretch their creative muscles when they make paper plate crabs, seashells, or even a cool surfboard. There’s also fun in store when they get to dig into beach sensory bins, make a beach hand print, or do ocean themed water bead play.

Make a floating Ship, Beach slime, do beach ball poetry, Sand votives or even word searches on the list! Activities sure to keep your kids happy and entertained! Which project do you think your child would love to do? Perhaps some and Sand Playdough?
