This month for Poppins Book Nook, the theme is Beach and Ocean.
It’s kinda hard to teach about beaches in the landlocked state of Utah.
We went to a reservoir camping and they had a rocky beach and the kids had loads of fun. It wasn’t the ocean, but the kids got to play and didn’t notice really.

I just loved this view!
It was too rocky to go barefoot! Alex and Tori loved collecting pretty rocks. Alex put them in his pocket for her!
Dad got some great portraits of the kids!
Tori’s eyes are sensitive to the bright light.
I got to go kayaking!

We read lots of books from the library and our shelves and talked about the ocean.
Alex doesn’t remember when we lived in Hawaii for three years, but the girls do.

Oh that looks like a ton of fun :)
That is a rocky beach! Must be a huge change to go from Hawaii to Utah too! Looks like you all had fun even without the sand!
How fun to go kayaking. I haven’t done that in years!
It is now my favoritest thing!
Thanks for listing my Beach Printable Pack as a resource for your readers! Glad you were able to get on the water and have some fun with your kids.
