The summer months are filled with ocean and beach time in our family and we do a lot of beach and ocean themed play to reflect on those experiences. These plays have helped my kids (now 4 and 5 years old) voice their questions about ocean creatures, expand their imagination on ocean topics and just have fun. Here are a few more ideas for some ocean themed play. For even more inspiration, check out my other post on ocean plays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Ocean Playdough Invitation <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had some play dough colours that my kids had mixed up into a swirly ball. It was still super squishy and soft and the colours looked a little like the ocean so I put in in a quick tray with some Dollarama brand kinetic sand that I\u2019ve had for years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The kids dove right into this playdough tray. I think they liked that the materials were all out of their containers and easy to access. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They made a pretty big mess with this, but also had a great time. So I call it even.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
