Jacks Beach Adventure

As its been a glorious day I took my little man down to the beach (anything to do with water he loves). So off we went armed with a bucket and spade (and all the other items that a 21 month old needs).
As soon as he saw the water he was jumping round like a little spring so as I turned my jeans up and armed with a fishing net off we went for a rock pool hunt.
Jack was in his element looking at the shells seaweed etc, we came across a good sized crab and being as inquisitive as he is picked the crab up by the nippers my heart was in my mouth as i thought the crab would nip, but jack decided he'd had enough of that and threw him in his bucket (along with a few shells and stones). We found starfish and a few other things, before the tide got the better of us so we headed up on to the stone beach where jack thought we must have been in maka packas (in the night garden) world, he was picking up stone after stone and putting them in our bag to take home. When we got home he decided to get the bar of soap and a sponge and wash them (thanks to the above mentioned programme for this). On another note it is good to take my son out and about to see and do the things Iwas younger as this doesn't seem to happen much now.
