Do you have a nature table or Science area at your house or school? I’m really hoping you said yes because this is a favorite spot of ours. If you don’t have a designated area you might want to consider adding one occasionally. They can be great for hands-on learning.

Ocean Activities

If you’re not familiar with loose parts they are awesome! They can be anything small and loose

Some examples for Ocean inspired loose parts are:

sea glass

glass beads

rocks

driftwood

small figures or ocean animals

any natural materials

colored beads

pom poms

shells… The list is endless.

Loose parts are great for your child’s imagination. They can play, build, or decorate however they want. They can count with them, enjoy the different textures of them, and create their own story with them.

Bring on the loose parts!
