Sponge Balls

Having a sponge ball fight has been on our summer list since Martha first published the idea years ago. Today we finally did it.

Bags of sponges from the Dollar Store made the activity super cheap (and super colorful).

The kids had fun pelting each other with the wet balls. And unlike water balloons, the activity lasted as long as the kids wanted.

    This is a great idea – it is so hot for my daughter’s birthday so we may have to try this. Thanks, Jane
