Beach Tips
Put your phone in a Ziploc bag. For umbrellas we have in the storage closet, use the screw base and screw it down really far so its tight. Put and lock in umbrella in the top. Umbrella not advised on super windy days (they can break). Observe flag colors. Take a cooler with drinks (no glass), cozies in the kitchen drawer. Look up Sand Castle classes, they are fun for the kids!
