Have you ever wondered what would happen if you filled 100 water balloons and set a group of three year olds loose with them outside? Well this morning I found out, and it was a blast. Henson's birthday is Friday, and I wasn't planning to have a friend party for him this year, but last week he told me he wanted to have his friends over to play with water balloons. (Note: until today he had never touched a water balloon, so I'm not sure why the sudden obsession ).
I think the day was a success. Rarely has our back yard been filled with so much squealing, laughing, and hyper energy. And for a group of preschoolers there were relatively few altercations that required adult intervention.
Here are a few pictures from our wet morning.
