(This post contains affiliate links.) We have been having so much fun with tide pools that we decided to create some beautiful tide pool artwork. Not only is the California coastline absolutely gorgeous, it also provides a wonderful learning opportunity~ tide pools! Observing various forms of sea life in the tide pools with your children is such a great way to build on their natural curiosity and wonder about the world around them. Lucy and Theo are always excited to find little crabs, sea stars, and anemones around our rocky tide pools nearby. (They especially love the sensory aspect of the added real sand!) They are perfect for any children interested in sea life or to go with an ocean unit and can be adapted for any age.
Children will love making these simple tide pool art projects.
