With schools closed to help combat the spread of the coronavirus, parents are likely looking for things children can do in the Myrtle Beach area while practicing social distancing.
There’s no need to worry — The Sun News has tracked down several options to get your children out of the house or stay in and be creative.
Here are things to do along the Grand Strand:
