    • What is it about the ocean that makes everyone love it so much? The fact that swimming is the best past-time ever or the fact that all the creatures are so interesting?

  15. Good ideas. The oceans and seas have so many things to learn about. All of the animals, fish and other sea critters and the oceans themselves like currents. When my son was younger and his mom was alive, we used to take him over to the coast and go through the aquariums and other attractions. He really enjoyed the beach and the petting zoo also.
