Last week I sent J a link for how to make a bike wash thinking that it would be a super fun thing for the boys to enjoy. Last weekend he made it a reality!
For two afternoons, the bike was was in action. The kids had a blast zipping up and down the sidewalk going through the sprayers, sponges and streamers. All of the PVC came from Lowe’s. I found the colorful sponges at Walmart in the automotive department. The blue fringe was a plastic tablecloth from the dollar store that I cut up. The short green fringe was a luau decoration also from the dollar store. The pool noodles are dollar store purchases as well. I didn’t tally everything up but I’m pretty sure all of the supplies were less than $50.
I blew bubbles and shot shaving cream at the kids as they went by. Of course ice pops were distributed as well 🙂
One of our neighbors even brought his bikes down for a washing. He gave each of the boys a dollar for letting him use the bike wash. It was so cute! They boys were thrilled!
Heck, even I gave it a try!
