Our mini-monsters love Sea Life Aquarium in Scheveningen but this holiday is not happening, we are already too busy! That's why we bake fish cakes with them, also fun during the holidays ;) At koek-it.nll we bought the fish and shark cutter, they also have several dolphins, a whale and all kinds of other aquatic animals.
