This afternoon, we headed to the beach where the sun shone and the wind blustered.
Whilst there, we hatched a plan to create our very own beach back at home. For this plan to work, we decided we would need to collect treasures from the beach - pebbles, shells, sea weed.
If you would like to make your very own beach, here is the recipe:
Add one bottle of baby oil to one bag of flour and mix well.
Create sandy island and decorate with shells, driftwood, pebbles and a crab claw.
Add seaweed, water, children and bath toys, sit back and watch the fun (and mess!) unfold.
Happy memories.
Will have to try this! Think my kids would really enjoy it, looks like yours did

Definitely recommend it, it was great fun. All of the components can easily be substituted as well, so not living near the sea won't be a problem. x
