Fairy Princess Water Bead Fun

Water beads are so simple to do.  Add a package to water and let them expand for a few hours, then I added some sparkly sequins and beads to make instant fairy princess water fun.

Piper is pretending to drink the fairy tea here.


How pretty is this!



They had lots of fun measuring and scooping the beads and water.  Best of all we did it outside, so there was minimal clean up for me.

Bug Catching


I bought these cute bug catchers about a month ago thinking I'd give the girls one each and take the rest to school.  Apparently they were eager to try them out because Piper opened the box this morning, and the next thing I knew they were very involved in digging up the ground.  Mostly they have just found some roly polys.  Poor things must be traumatized from all the rolling around they are doing inside their plastic prison.  We will make sure to let them go later today, but for now the girls are having fun showing their finds off to the kids in the neighborhood.
