As the summer starts to wind down, take advantage of the last few
outings to the beach. This fun activity can be played by beach goers
of all ages. Musical towels - Lay down beach towels in a circle and
crank up summer tunes like Surfin' U.S.A., by the Beach Boys.
How cute is this idea? Make nature hikes more fun by collecting drift
wood and sticks - Paint them with gorgeous patterns and colors.
This is a fun idea.
