Who doesn’t love some water play on a hot summer day?  Of course, swimming is always fun but sometimes, you just don’t have access to a pool. 

Or, you might have a child like mine – before the age of about 5, she was kind of iffy about being in water – let me tell you, that made bath-time quite the chore!

wish I had thought of this when my daughter was little!  Looks like such fun!

There are lots of great DIY boat ideas out there but I really love these mini sail boats from Made to be a Momma. 

Float them in your bathtub, kiddie pool, or even a puddle!

I just adore these DIY Kiddie Car Washes like this one from Mom Endeavors! 

Ride through on a bike, trike, or toy vehicle or even just run through.

Make these sponge balls from It’s Overflowing and play some water toss games!

A Slip n Slide is always fun!

How about this idea for making a slip n slide hockey rink?
