Science: Barnacles
Barnacles are crustaceans with a hard shell that attach themselves to underwater surfaces, including animals, boats, piers. And rocks. They have tiny strands that sift food from water. There are over 1,000 different kinds of barnacles.

Be careful! If you step on a rock with an attached barnacle, the barnacle’s sharp shell can cut your foot.

Record information about barnacles in the mini-book.

Science: The Five Senses
This book is perfect for a discussion and review of the five senses. What do Donnie and Gramma smell, see, touch, and hear on the beach? Use the layer book to review these things.

Additionally, use one of the T-books provided to imagine a walk (like Donnie and Gramma!). Imagine what it would be like to walk on the moon, walk through a castle, walk near the ocean, walk near a pond, or walk in the desert.
