Happy as a Clam at High Tide!

I grew up mostly on the East Coast and a common phrase we would use was "as happy as a clam at high tide".  When I came to the Midwest, not many understood this phrase.  If they thought hard about it, they would sometimes realize that clamming happens at low tide.  Anyways, I think I like still like to use this saying only to see the reaction of people.  

Another saying was "the Tide's In" meaning it was high tide.  I worked at a beach hotel during the summer and it was called The Tides Inn - how appropriate.

We have lots of ocean themed toys and gifts for toddlers and preschoolers.  

Babies will love the squeaky seahorse from Kathe Kruse.  It is soft and bright - a perfect soft toy for getting babies attention.

Innovative Kids has a line of Groovy Tubes which is a book with a tube on the spine that contains small figures.  THe book is filled with games, activities and stories.  Lots of fun and lots to do!
