Pinterest Fun

It has been soooo long since I posted that I thought I would share the fun that we had today doing some activities that I found on Pinterest.  Megan was having a friend over for the evening so I wanted to give them something to do (since Megan usually whines that she is bored).  At the beginning of summer I always have the best of intentions to give the kids fun activities to do but I usually fall way short and they end up having a boring summer.  Well I think this summer has started off to a pretty good start, we have already had swim lessons, gone to our family reunion, and got a pool pass and used it quite a few times.  So here is what we did tonight.  It was so fun to hear their squeals and giggles as we did the different activites...

 Slime using the traditional white glue.

 Slime using the clear glue.  Megan named it Crystal(she loves to name things!).

 Ivory soap heated in the microwave.  It is really cool to watch it expand.  I did learn that you have to use brand new soap.  I had an ooold bar and it caught on fire!  I had to convince the kids to try it again because they were terrified!  Where is their sense of adventure?  Haha.

Here is our soap cloud.  It made the kitchen smell sooo clean.
