Phone Photography contest 64: Remember the Cool Temperature at the Beach

My friends, are you in Holidays?
If you have children at home in Summer Holidays you will find interesting to move to the beach and enjoy life.

There are more than usual young boys and girls at home since the end of the school last session of terms for this academic year in Republic of Benin.

You will find that most of the children nowadays spend too much of their free time watching some screen connected to the internet.

What can we do?

After school at that age I was not offered multiple option either I take a book and read or I get authorization to visit a friend at his house once both parents agree.

I believe that the technological evolution of the entertainment has left many of us older people unequipped to face the challenge of this young generation's addictions.

My personal experimentation will be to organize as many as possible outdoor activities to keep the young mind in connection with nature.

I would submit this first photo for the contest jury appreciation.

This is the environment I would love to introduce to all the seven young people who came to spend this summer vacations in Town.

They came from two separate area of the country, so I strongly defend this initiative to move to the beach two time per week, even though all the parents are opposed to the idea.

I spent quality time at the beach when I was younger. The moment of calm and refreshing exercise were printed in my memory during the passage at the beach.

Parents are not wrong to prevent their children to go to the beach because of the danger of the waves and the attraction this place can operate in the mind so they will come later with friends and the worst can happen.

Let be clear on this dangerous and beautiful spot that the beach can represent to adult and young people either too distracted or confident to the last moment of death by drowning.

My understanding of the risk is more than well understood since I have almost been victim of such incident. I will be at the beach with at least tree friends to keep these young students at safe distance of the water on the sand playing with kite or plastic buck and shovel.

The simple solution to keep this young mind busy to remain safe in this environment will be in my opinion to bring the courageous child to the wet section of the beach and let the waves come and run back grabbing sand under their feet so they see the risk involve standing too close to the waves.

The reason they should never follow anybody to the beach without a direct authorization of their mother. Also, If they do not tell directly to the child to with someone close she designated, they should stay put at home before she comes to pick them up.

These photos are so beautiful that I hope to succeed in my mission to let the young people in vacation in my house discover the beach.
