Let’s go on a fun adventure to the beach and meet some amazing animals! Are you ready? Let’s dive in!
First, we see a crab. Crabs have big claws and they love to scuttle sideways on the sand. Can you pretend to be a crab and scuttle too?
Next, we meet a sea lion. Sea lions are playful and love to splash in the water. They can even balance a ball on their nose! Can you pretend to be a sea lion and splash around?
Look up! It’s a seagull flying high in the sky. Seagulls love to soar above the beach and look for tasty snacks. Can you flap your arms like a seagull and fly?
Now, let’s say hello to a sea turtle. Sea turtles have a big shell on their back. They move slowly on land, but in the water, they swim super fast! Can you pretend to swim like a sea turtle?
In the water, we see lots of colorful fish. Fish swim around the coral reef all day. They live in schools, just like you go to school to learn and play! Can you wiggle like a fish?
Here comes a dolphin! Dolphins are very smart and love to play. They can jump out of the water and spin around. Can you jump and spin like a dolphin?
In the coral reef, we find an octopus. Octopuses have eight arms and can change colors. Can you count to eight and pretend to have lots of arms like an octopus?
Watch out for the shark! Sharks have sharp teeth and are great swimmers. But don’t worry, they just want to swim by. Can you pretend to swim fast like a shark?
In the deep ocean, we see a giant whale. Whales are the biggest animals in the ocean. They sing beautiful songs. Can you make a big whale sound?
In the cold polar regions, we find a polar bear. Polar bears have thick fur to keep them warm. They love to play in the snow. Can you pretend to be a polar bear and stomp in the snow?
Last, we see a penguin. Penguins waddle on the ice and slide on their bellies. Can you waddle like a penguin and slide around?
Wasn’t it fun meeting all these animals? Next time you visit the beach or watch a nature show, see how many of these animals you can spot!
Crab Walk Race: Gather your friends or family and have a crab walk race! Find a safe space where you can all scuttle sideways like crabs. See who can reach the finish line first while moving like a crab. Notice how your body feels when you move sideways and think about why crabs might move this way.
Animal Sound Orchestra: Create an orchestra of animal sounds with your friends or classmates. Each person can choose an animal from the beach adventure, like a dolphin, whale, or seagull, and make the sound that animal might make. Take turns being the conductor and lead your orchestra in a fun animal sound concert. How do the sounds change when you make them louder or softer?
Beach Animal Observation: Next time you visit a beach or watch a nature show, bring a notebook and draw or write about the animals you see. Try to spot a crab, seagull, or any other animal from the lesson. What are they doing? How are they moving? Share your observations with your family or friends and discuss why these animals might behave this way.
