Synopsis

On hot summer days, the beaches are packed with all kinds of people swimming, splashing, or lying in the sun. But there are other days magical ones when the beach is empty. Whoosh! The wind tosses up the sand in curling eddies. Kazoom! The waves cymbal-crash against the shore. Yes!Days like these are just right for finding mermaids.Have you ever walked on the beach and looked for shells or or clams? There are creatures, more like you and me, who are even more interesting to look for. Most people don't see them, but they might just not know how to look for signs. That sand dollar-why, that could be a mermaid-size surfboard. Those twisted reeds-a bed for a lovely afternoon mermaid nap. And if you peer closely into the water, you might see a mermaid market.This is a lovely activity for a fun day at the beach and a way to encourage paying close attention to all the interesting things that can be found on the beach or in the water.
