Felicia, from Philadelphia, sent in this great idea. Let’s take a look at it…
What did you do?
My family slept at my parents this weekend and yesterday while having a conversation with my sons and nephew they inspired me to do a fun random last minute mommy magic obstacle courses. Since we are an hour from my home I didnt have my mommy magic box so I had to go to two different dollar trees to get my supplies for the pirate theme in my head. Lol
*Mommy magic*
Pirate edition
The pirates left treasures in grandmom and grandpops yard
They made it very hard to find the treasure with and obstacle course and deadly poisonous shells. Along the course they left silver gold and gems. The A team treasure explores collected it along the way. They found three treasure boxs at the end hidden with the pirates treasures.
They had so much fun
Everything came from the dollar store
Streamers (9)
Boxs for the treasures( 3)
Candy (6packs )
Gold and silver dollars (5 packs of 30 counts )
Gems (2 packs)
3 sets of crystals to make
1 bag of army men
1 bag of shells
1 6 pack of paint
1 12 count paint brushes
They could then paint their chest and shells
They were very surprised and had alot of fun
I believe childhood should be magical and fun
Super surprise that taping steamers to the side or the pool worked. What didnt work was taping it to the cement lol
Do you have any other projects planned?
Well next is a batman obstacle course.
