MATERIALS NEEDED:
A rotating lawn sprinkler hooked up to a hose
Someone manning the faucet who is prepared to sing and provide the “music.”
HOW TO PLAY: Start with the sprinkler turned off. Players must move around the sprinkler area, jumping, dancing or striking funny poses. When the sprinkler is turned on, they must freeze in position and get drenched until the sprinkler is turned off again.
More cool ideas, like a water-filled piñata, or pinaqua, made from a trash bag, here.

Thanks to KI’s ever-imaginative Senior Writer, Molly McGinn, for a terrific idea!

There is a reason for my absence… My husband and I had the incredible opportunity to visit Israel for an extended trip at the end of June. What a life-changing experience! I especially enjoyed watching the people, and this little boy, playing on the playground at preschool playground in Jerusalem just about stole my heart with his mischievious smile!
