My kids all like to wear goggles in the pool but the cheap straps often snap, making the goggles useless. Luke was so upset when his Buzz Lightyear goggles broke this year that I decided to come up with a fix-it solution (I’m too cheap to buy another pair at the dollar store). I measured his head and used a zig-zag stitch to sew on an elastic strap. I’m sure millions of other people have already come up with this idea but I’m so pleased with it … a strap that will hold up to the elements and won’t have to be continually size-adjusted.
Lila’s goggles also got a new elastic band.
I’ve started truncating my posts … please pop over to my blog to read the rest!
Probably not millions! You’re ingenious. I’ve never thought of it, I’m sure there are some pairs around I can fix now!
oh my gosh. I just slapped my fore head and said DUH! THANK YOU for being smarter than me and for posting this, my kids will be thrilled!! 🙂
