We love visiting our beautiful Florida beachfront short term rental vacation condos in Fort Walton Beach, right in between Pensacola and Destin (view them here!). When we go on our annual family trip I like to have plenty of fun activities for my kids to do at the beach. Otherwise, they tend to go splash in the waves for an hour or so then ask to go back inside for various excuses (it’s always that dang iPad and TV that call to them!). Ugh, makes me so mad! I’m sure many of you have experienced the same woes during family vacations as me. Especially if you have kids around 6-16ish years old, which is why you clicked on this post in the first place, am I right?!
Rest assured, I have compiled seventeen different beach activities that are small enough to pack in your suitcase! Just scroll on down…Yass!! Bring these games and toys on your vacation and the kids will spend (I’m not kidding) ALL DAY on the beach without whining or complaining about it. You’ll have that family fun that you’re eager to make memories from everyday at the beach! The kids will be so occupied that you may even get to read a few pages from a book or bask in the sun quietly for a few uninterrupted moments. Ah sounds nice, doesn’t it…? Like a vacation… almost?!
I kid, but you get it 🙂
I’ve only included games below that would ACTUALLY get my kids attention and can be brought right onto the beach with no wear and tear on them A.K.A waterproof or sand proof. All you have to do is scroll down and click on the links to view each toy or game in more detail on Amazon. Easy peasy.
