10 Things Kids Love to Do on a Beach Vacation

As the weather cools and you think about taking your kids away from your Norfolk apartment for a winter getaway, think the beach. Kids of all ages love to play at the beach. The fresh air, ocean breeze and a little sunshine are good for the whole family. Children will enjoy playing in the sand and water where they can dig their hands in and explore their creativity.

The beach allows each member of the family to be as active or as lazy as they want to be. Have a great time playing with your kids or sitting back and watching them have the time of their lives. Here are ten things kids love to do on beach vacations.
