We're off to the beach and need some ideas!

I think I have most of my bases covered, but just wanted to see if anyone had any other ideas for the trip.  We're off to Ocean City MD for the fireworks - woohoo!


I have 3 boys, ages 10, 7 and 5.  We figure it'll take about 6-8 hours to get there, depending on stops.  We have a DVD player for the kids and they each have a portable video game to take.  I think I have the drive down pretty well covered, but if you have anything to add, feel free.


At the beach -- we borrowed boogie boards from a friend for each of them to try.  I'm very nervous about the ocean -- it just scares me, always has.  We also got some sand toys for building castles.  Any other suggestions here?  I'm afraid 1 or 2 won't like the boogie board thing and get bored very easily with the sand toys.


We're also planning our restaurants for each night and the boardwalk.  Anyone else know of anything at OC, MD that was really great for kids?  Hubs and I have been there without the kids last summer, but really just enjoyed eating out and walking the boardwalk.  I don't think my kids will enjoy the boardwalk as much, and I don't want to hang out at the arcade/amusement park every night.  We usually vacation at resort towns - like Disney and Dollywood - where there's tons of stuff to do right in front of you. 


Just looking for suggestions!
