Sprinkler Ball

We've visited a few sprinkler parks recently and the general consensus is that Caroline enjoys them, but Caden just does not. I assumed it was because he just didn't enjoy getting wet....boy was I wrong! I bought a sprinkler ball for the kids to help Caden get more accustomed to having water in his face. We put the ball in the front yard and Caroline got suited up in her swimsuit. I decided not to even bother putting Caden's on. It's a fight to get it on and I thought he would mostly stay dry anyway.

Here are a few pictures of our adventure. Caden was SOAKED!
He had no fear and put his face and entire body in the water.
Caroline was the more timid of the two, although, she eventually ended up soaked as well!
All in all, the sprinkler ball was a ton of fun! We'll be bringing it out all summer long!
Here is a close up of Caroline's swim suit....she is in the 95th percentile in height and about the 40th in weight. She has a hard time keeping her swimsuit up once it gets wet!
Now that we know that Caden enjoys the water, we'll try out the sprinkler parks again!

  1. Drew loves the same sprinkler ball!! Too bad they're too far apart to play together!
