Science
- The child learned about different marine animals, such as fish, crabs, and seagulls, through observation and interaction.
- They gained understanding of the concept of buoyancy by observing how objects float or sink in the water.
- The child learned about the tides and how they affect the shoreline by observing the water level throughout the day.
- They explored the concept of erosion by noticing how waves shape the sand and move it along the beach.
For continued development, encourage the child to explore more about marine life by visiting aquariums or reading books about different sea creatures. They can also engage in simple experiments at home, such as testing different objects for buoyancy in a tub of water.
