I originally saw this water blob on interest from the Clumsy Crafter
We really want to do it for a birthday party but we needed a trial first... So here is our first attempt!
Materials
large roll of plastic sheeting
duct tape
water!
So really it is pretty self explanatory! You lay it out duct tape the edges leave one small edge open to put the hose through slip it in and fill!
FYI: USE THE MOST LEVEL SURFACE POSSIBLE!!
I learned this from experience. Hubby and I had a very interesting afternoon trying to stop the blob from imploding on itself down into the corner of the yard.... After it was already full of water it was IMPOSSIBLE to move!!
I bailed after it was filled because I could not stop it from rolling away! We got dinner and hubby fixed it! Isn't he great!! I still have no idea how he fixed it! But I love him!!!
M2 loved crawling around on the plastic sheeting before it was even filled!
I LOVE THAT HAPPY FACE!!
Holding the hose inside!
We now have 2 very happy very tired little Monkeys!! Yea for bedtime!!
We are planning on doing this for M2's birthday party! I think we will make a few smaller ones and maybe add some soft toys and food coloring!!
