Creatures, creatures!

We've only been at the beach a few days, but what a bunch of experiences we've had already!  The kids are thoroughly enjoying exploring our rented property on the bay!   They are constantly bringing in more frogs and toads to show me!

We brought a minnow trap with us, so we threw it off the dock to see what we might catch.  On their first check they caught not only a little fish but an American Eel!  That was pretty cool in their eyes!

Fishing is quickly becoming a favorite pastime!  So far we've caught bass and catfish off the dock. How perfect for teaching the kids about clean and unclean fish!

We've also been to the beach where the kids have enjoyed hunting for sand fleas - little crab-like creatures that like to bury themselves in the sand right in the surf. We've had a good time catching them.
