I finally got around to putting up my 4th of July decorations. I have an alcove in my entryway and love to change it up for the holidays. Here is the before........
And here is the after................
Join me over the next few days and I will share the details on how to make some of the decorations.
Thanks for coming back for another Water Wednesday!
We have had a busy crazy week already and Wednesday snuck up on me. We had been swimming everyday but I hadn't decided on a post for today. My little guy actually came up with today's post by himself! We did a sink or float experiment. You could do this in the pool or a water table or a kiddie pool.
First, my little guy ran around collecting items from around the house to test whether they sank or float. We had everything from a rock, to plastic buckets, to pretend food, to dive toys. And of course he had to add in some superheroes and villains. Then, we just took items and before throwing them into the pool tried to guess whether they would sink or float. Then, my little guy tossed the items in and was excited when he had guessed right.
The best part was when the items sank - my little guy then would dive under the water to get them.
He had so much fun he kept running around trying to find more things to test!
I was decorating for 4th of July and had some patriotic hats I wanted to put in a bowl and then put on a sofa table. I didn't have enough to fill the bowl so I came up with a way to fill the bowl without buying more hats.
All you need is your bowl or vase and then a smaller bowl or cup.
I usually use a Princess House Trifle Bowl on the sofa table. So I chose a smaller clear bowl and turned it upside down and placed it inside the larger bowl. I used clear so that if there was any spaces it wouldn't be noticeable.
Then I took and filled the bowl with the hats--the bowl looked full without having to buy more. You can do this with any bowl or vase to save money!
