Fun times! You just wait til he is old enough to run down the crabs at night. I got 2 girls(8 and 7 year olds) and a 5 year old boy....and we have a competition every night to see who can catch the most crabs. It is so much fun and they talk about it year around. June 2nd can't get here fast enough so we can go hit up 30A hunting crabs, catching pomano from the surf and diving for sea shells.
