Grinding Chalk.
Making prints by squirting paint on one side of a piece of a pre-folded paper and then folding and revealing the painting. The big reveal was the highlight of this activity.
Turning lids over with a small spatula. I stuck ocean stickers under them to add a point of interest.
Some ocean themed trays using Carisa's letter J printables from 1+1+1=1. Green tray: Coloring (J-jo attempted it with me telling him which to color what color, but Bear did the actual coloring you see). Pink tray: Hole reinforcer stickers over the J's on the jellyfish. J-jo liked this one. Yellow Tray: stamping J on the jelly fish printout. Our stamps are a little small (perfect for Bear though as a replacement for the moveable alphabet) and J-jo struggles with holding them correctly.
Hard at work on his favorite of the three trays.
Reading a counting book downloaded from 1+1+1=1 - I think this one is from her ocean's lapbook.
He also pulled the presentation tray of the geometric cabinet down and used it as a knob puzzle.

I just created an ocean/whale sensory bin which would go nicely with your ocean theme. I just have to find time to post it!
