Outdoor Water Blob

SDPB Learn

Materials

Big roll of plastic sheeting
Duct tape
Hose/water source

Directions

1. Fold the plastic sheeting in half and tape the three open sides with duct tape. Make sure you leave a small hole to insert the water hose.

2. Insert the hose and fill the "blob" with water. When it's full, tape the small opening shut and let the kids run loose! Make sure you don't fill it too tight or there won't be room to slosh around.

3. Optional: If you'd like, you can add some blue food coloring just for that wow factor. You can also add glitter, confetti or small gummy items like worms or fish for a theme party. Just make sure the items are very soft with no pointy edges.
