The Beach is the Best Babysitter!

 

I am a born and bred California girl- I would live on the beach if I could, and I mean ON the beach.

I think there are few other babysitters as wonderful as God's gigantic natural sandbox- the beach.  We spent a day there this week, and the five hours of driving time was well worth it.

Can you get to a beach this summer?  Even if it's a narrow sandbar on a river or lake, you'll likely find it to be a source of playtime fun for several hours.  Even with preschoolers, you might find you'll get to sit back, relax, and sip a frozen Coke.  With a bendy straw.  Does life get better than that?
