What you'll need

  • Shovel
  • Bucket
  • Shells

How it works

  1. First, you need a lot of shells. Look for many different types - big, small, thick, thin, colorful, and shiny shells. But be careful! Some might still have a little shell creature living in them. Leave those alone.

  2. Now find a good spot for your castle. It's best to choose somewhere where the waves won't wash it away right away. Maybe a little bit away from the water?

  3. Let's get started. Build a castle. Decorate your castle with the prettiest shells you found. You might also find feathers, stones, or seaweed that you can use.

  4. Ta-da! Your shell castle is ready! Now you can step back and admire your masterpiece. Pretty impressive, right? Have fun building, little builders! And remember: The most important thing about building is to have lots of fun!
