Helpfulness
What to buy: Buy a stone ball, let it be cut and be surprised. Kids can also cut the stone themselves. After it is opened the people selling it will tell you what crystals are inside.
The stones are formed by a vulcano. The outside is lava, and the heat formed crystals inside before it cooled and formed a ball.
The balls are not from here, but they come from Mexico.

We just 'parked' our boat along the water and Bert and eldest hopped off to buy us some icecream.
Second child was told to keep the boat along the shore and was determined to do it right.
I of course, had to photograph ;-)

It's more like a museum annex shop.
You can see some showcases with Shells and other seacreatures and a lot of stuff made from shells like jewelry, boxes and so on.

An unusual natural environment
When I was 17 I spent a group vacation week here in Giethoorn. We went out onto the Wieden (Beulaker) daily with the 'punters' ,a narrow open boat that is moved along like the gondola's in Venice.
