Grandfather's 32-Year Seashell Hunting Secret Still Magical

A wholesome grandpa has received an outpouring of love online, after his daughter shared a video of him dropping souvenir seashells along a beach for his grandchildren to find. Michael Malko's daughter, Michaela, who recorded the video of her two kids, said that it also showed a revelation that took her more than 30 years to fathom: that her father had once done this to her long beach walks as a child, too. The moment took place on April 2, at Pensacola Beach, Florida, and after Michaela shared the video on her TikTok, it soon receive a wide range of positive comments from all across the world. When Michaela and her children Anastasia, 10, and Maxwell, 5, recently visited their grandpa, he told Michaela that he needed to head out to the souvenir shop. Michaela said she was confused, as he had recently headed out to pick up all the items he needed. Later, Michael explained, "I want to do something for the kids that I used to do for you when you were little,” before warning that it would reveal a big childhood secret.
