Beat the Heat...Slip 'n' Slide Baby

I love slip 'n' slides but they are usually pretty small and pretty expensive. This year I decided to change it up a bit. Painters plastic is really sturdy and so off to Home Depot we went to buy us some. Yikes, it was way more expensive than I thought. I bought black and went home and checked things out on the internet. Apparently black ruins the grass. I looked into things and Lowe's was way cheaper than Home Depot so I headed there for the clear visqueen. We got a 10x25 feet long one. There is bigger but I thought this would work for us.

You can basically put ANYTHING in google and find something.  So again, I put homemade slip 'n' slide on google and this lady turned out to have the easiest instructions.  Just simply pour baby shampoo all over the visqueen and turn on a sprinkler.  I used the bike wash and it worked like a charm.  We set it up and soon enough the neighborhood poured in.  We love having friends over.  It really was a lot of fun and the kids loved it.

Supplies

10x25 feet Clear Visqueen (Painters Plastic) Lowe's was the best price for me

1 bottle of Generic Baby Shampoo

Sprinkler or Bike Wash

Water

This cost me about $10 and it will last for the summer.  Can't beat that.
