Beside the Seaside offers a selection of simple geography activities for younger children, featuring Blackpool and other UK seaside towns.
Children can locate key seaside towns on a map, read about a family day trip to Blackpool and compare temperatures at different locations. With the DIY seaside kit, children can even create their own online beach scene.
Top tips:
1. Read through any questions with your child and make sure they know what they are supposed to do.
2. Discuss what you see in the pictures and the information that accompanies them.
3. Parents may find the teachers’ notes and printouts useful, too.
