After all the viral marketing around Robin Sparkles’ new song and music video, “Sandcastles in the Sand,” we finally got to see the actual HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER episode.
The Good: Revertigo! We once more learn a new hip word courtesy of the writers of How I Met Your Mother. With Lily and Ted going [...]
Robin Sparkles is back on tonight’s new episode of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER and she is bringing us a new song, “Sandcastles in the Sand.” Even better, James Van Der Beek guest stars as her old flame. The next step is to find a way to keep Mr. Van Der Beek on the show, [...]
Robin Sparkles, a fake 1980's Canadian pop star who is the embarrassing secret alter-ego for the 'How I Met Your Mother' character Robin Scherbatsky (Cobie Smulders), is out with the video to her new single 'Sandcastles in the Sand'. Watch a clip fro
I used to play in the sand all day long when we went to the beach as a kid. I grew up in New Hampshire which boasts of thirteen miles of coastline, Hampton Beach was the place to go and I imagine it still is even though I have not been back there in many moons. The water is cold by anyone’s standards. For example, today’s air temperature at Hampton Beach is 66 degrees and the water temperature is 62.1 degrees, not exactly tropical. My brother and I would body surf all day long, but when we got sick of that we would grab a bucket and start digging. It’s sandcastle time my friend!
We had a few caveats; the castle needed to have a moat, and it needed to have lots of tunnels and it had to be close enough to the oncoming high tide so we had to move pretty fast. Making sandcastles at the beach have a couple of tried and true techniques, and I’m sure these techniques have impressive names for the professionals (yes there are professional sandcastle makers, most likely

Youngest Princess and I just built some Sandcastles. It was a lot of fun! You had many options to choose from and you could even color the sand. You got to add fun little things like beach balls, seagulls, crabs and even flags to the top of your sand towers. It was really easy to do, even Youngest Princess colored her sandcastle by herself. She even wants to go make some more. I guess she loves digging in the sand whether it's real or virtual!The website even has a sandcastle gallery so you can see what sandcastles other people have built. Some of them are quite extravagant! I've always been envious of people who can make sandcastles actually look like something! Mine usually look like what they are.....upside down buckets. Thank goodness for the internet, where my sandcastle looks like something!Make sure your speakers are turned up too! There are sounds of seagulls and waves crashing on the beach. If you close your eyes you can just imagine yourself sitting there with a
I want to take the dogs to the beach! Okay okay, I will be able to, the boys at least, when we go back to dog camp in September. But I’d love to take the girls, too, and sit on the beach all day and build Sandcastles.
Since we can’t do that in real life, well, we can do it online. I went and built a sandcastle today, and you can see my image of it here. I like sand-colored sandcastles, instead of blue ones. But you can make them any color you want. And put in shells and seagulls and flags and starfish. I might have overdid it with the starfish but I love those little guys.
This website lets you email your castle as an e-card to friends and family. They also will search for great vacation packages for you if you really want to go to the beach. I would love to go on vacation again. I haven’t been to a warm water and sand spot for years now. It’s about time.
This sandcastle builder is easy, and fun for kids, too. I don’t have any kids myself, just my do

I would like someone to send me one."We have embeded our e-card here so you can check it out...Our e-card is automatically published on the Beach's Family Resort website.

Even though we took a family vacation to the beach in April, it feels as if it was a lifetime ago and I've been missing it ever since we got back. The sound of the waves hitting the shore, the gulls crying in the wind, the smell of the salty air... my heart is truly at peace when my view is looking down the length of my legs with the sand and ocean view behind my toes. Book in hand, sun lotion
(To the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas)On my first day of summer,I found an e-card game,to make sandcastles to send friends...Do you like my e-card? I made my sandcastle at www.virtualsandcastle.com.At first I was daunted thinking I had to make it like a real sandcastle with four edges. But once I got my three dimensional thinking out of the way, it was easy, quick, and fun. You can resize pieces, move them in front and back of each other, and even color the "sand." Then add beach accessories like shells and flags.Once your sandcastle is done, you get to play with an electronic beach ball as it saves the pieces as a unit. I was surprised. I had as much fun clicking on the beach ball and watching it bounce within the frame of my monitor as I did making the castle.At the end, you can send your card to friends or make it into wallpaper. And then other people visiting the site will see your creation.Kids would love to make and decorate their own sandcastles so if your kids are alread
A little boy is on his knees scooping and packingthe sand with plastic shovels into a bright blue bucket.Then he upends the bucket on the surface and lifts it.And, to the delight of the little architect, a castle tower is created. All afternoon he will work. Spooning out the moat. Packing the walls. Bottle tops [...]
