This was an on the fly idea that came about tonight during dinner.  G was wearing her bathing suit (as you do when you’re 2 and a 1/2 and hanging out at home) and asked for a ‘special, special, soooooo special bath’ tonight.  No go-to ideas came to mind, but my little doodle eating dinner in a ruffled polka dot bathing suit gave me one!  … A pool party bath!

I filled the tub up nice and full and added a few drops of aqua gel food colouring to give it a pool feel, then collected a few pool/summer things – beach balls, a watering can, a pail and shovel, some water wings, and a water bottle.  For extra fun, I loaded our little bubble machine up with solution and placed it so that the bubbles would flow down into the tub from up above.   Gracen grabbed her sun glasses and her pool towel, and we were good to go.

Such a simple idea, but Grae just thought it was the best thing ever.  Things did get a little wild when she began trying to pop every single bubble before they hit the water, but it was all good fun.  Part way through, we took out our window crayons and added a ‘party wall’, which was just as much fun to splash off as it was to draw on. ☺
