You buy a bag of 50 water balloons at the commissary for $1.23, spend 10 minutes filling them up, get the kids in their swim suits, and then tell them to have at it outside!
Well, then I had to enforce a rule of "no throwing at the head--just at the feet" as it got to be a bit brutal among the older siblings.
Gotta love that slip 'n' slide! It's been warm enough that we've been bringing this out a couple times a week. And when the water balloons were gone, but the kids still wanted to get wet...well, problem solved!
Quick note here: I NEVER ever, EVER, imagined that this blonde haired, blue-eyed kid would ever tan (his pediatrician always warned me about his extreme fair skin and the sun). Well, being in the sun every day has changed that! Or, at least while living here. Can you see his farmers tan? (Along with every bone in his rib cage? Dude, the past few days he's done nothing but non-stop EAT. I'm wondering when some of that food is going to stick to his body!)
