Homemade Slip 'N Slide

We took on a major gardening undertaking that involved being outside all day. As the girls grew antsy (and saw a slip 'n slide in our neighbors' yard!), we decided to set up a homemade slip 'n slide! Not really sure I need to post directions, but in case you've never seen or thought of it, here's what we did...

Unrolled several huge trash bags without separating them. We laid them so they sloped downward and used some plastic pegs we had on hand to secure them in the ground at the starting line. (It was windy, so we initially had a bag of mulch at the finish line...ha!) We brought over the hose and set it at the start of the trash bag slide and the girls went to town! They found that it was a lot of fun to lay on their pool kickboards and slide down on them.
