Just because your friends are headed south for the tropics doesn’t mean you have to get jealous of them. Instead, with a little help from your imagination, you can make yourself believe that you are on a white sand beach, barefoot, sipping Coronas with limes. All you need is something to focus on like a photo or better yet, the Beach in a Box. No passport, plane ticket or luggage necessary. A few deep breaths, some grains of sand in your hand, some peace and quiet, your eyes shut and you’re almost there.
Box is approximately 4.25″ square x 1.25″ deep. Kit includes: beach chair, beach umbrella, beach ball, floating ring, sea shells, sandals, sand and container to hold it all.
Please note: style, size and color of components may vary.
Some imaginations need no prompting at all, while others simply need a good place to start. This is where Beach in a Box comes into play. The set provides you with the essentials that one would typically bring to the beach, shrunken down about a hundred times. You can visit your happy place whenever you want, for free. The only downside is you never know when you’ll be jerked back into reality.
The Beach in the Box is $7.99 at Office Playground. They also have the Executive Beach in a Box for variety.
After a nice nap at the beach, it’s time to head out for some golf. The Desktop Chip Shotz Golf set is a good way to initiate fantasies of playing on a beachside PGA course.
