Early in the day?
Ten Purple Sea Urchins
At the bottom of the bay

Ten purple sea urchins, nine black eels, eight green crabs.. Can you count them all?

There are so many fun details to explore for clever little minds:
How many squid can you see?
What colour is the starfish?
How many legs does a crab have?
