Summertime often means family trips to the beach, and a beach trip provides a great opportunity for summer learning. If you’re planning a trip to the beach, visiting the beach, or just wishing you were heading for the beach, these books will help you learn all about oceans, sharks, and other marine life with the kids. There are also some additional unit study and lapbooking resources listed. And if you want to create your own unit study with these resources, you can pick up a free unit study planner here.
