Beach Day!

Yes, taking your kids to the beach is a GREAT sensory activity! Touching the sand, getting their toes wet is all important for sensory development for kids. So plan a trip to the beach this summer - whether it's the ocean or a local lake. Even an outdoor inflatable pool or local splash pad at the park is not a bad idea!
