Along the Shore

Clamshells are among the most recognizable seashells that we collect on beaches. There are several kinds of bivalves known as clams, including quahogs, razor clams, and surf clams. Curious kids will learn where clams live, how they filter food out of the water, and how move. They’ll also discover how people have depended on clams over the years, using them for everything from food to money.
