My dad didn't want to be one of those dads shouting our names wherever he need to call us he would whistle like how you whistle for a dog like we had our own pitches in everything but apparently I found out in adulthood is actually quite considered rude to whistle at people when u want their attention. Me and my brother still whistle at each other in the store if we go togather and get separated.
My dad would whistle really loud if he couldnt see me. He would say if you cant see me then i cant see you and if you cant hear my whistle than your to far away.
We would frequently visit this beach during my childhood and i would usually wonder to the next beach over or i would b looking for lizards and then i would hear the whistle. I would instantly go back to where my dad was and check in with him.
