One of our favorite beach bonding activities is building sandcastles. That would take a lot of sand {hey, we have the whole shore!}, a lot of beach water, small and big rocks, used barbecue sticks, leaves and those plastic pail and shovel.
When you are with a child, it is guaranteed to be one of the most fun things to do and you can even show your creative prowess. Of course, your sandcastle need not be the show-stopping kind. Your child with be happy with whatever you two has built.
