Sand Sculptures

A visit to the beach can be a lot of fun – we all enjoy building things out of sand. As a team, decide on a theme for your sand sculptures. Then, get building!

Plan

  • When and where will you have this adventure?
  • What do you need to bring?
  • What will you make?
  • What other things can you do at the beach?

Do

  • Create some amazing sculptures out of sand. You might want to make more than one sculpture. What can you do differently with the sand?

Review

  • What do you know now that you did not know before?
  • What did you make?
  • What did the other teams make?
  • How did you sculpt the sand?
  • What other creative things can you do with sand at the beach?
  • Remember to take nothing but pictures and leave nothing but footprints - break apart your sand sculptures before you leave the beach. 

Keep it Simple

  • If you do not have the right kind of sand for sand sculptures, try making a sand painting!

Take it Further

  • Work as a big group to build a whole sand city! Make a plan, decide who will build what and then get sculpting!
