Our kids really wanted to have a water fight today. They really wanted me to buy some splash balls at the store, but they were $2.99 each. Instead I purchased a few packages of sponges and some twine. I was able to make 6 small balls and 1 large one for under $8!
Total Time: 20 minutes
Supplies:
- sponges
- cotton string
- scissors

Steps:
- Cut two sponges in half, the long way.
- Then cut them in half again. Now you have 8 long strips.

- Cut a length of string and stack the strips, with the string laying underneath them.

- Bring the ends of the string up and tie them tightly around the sponge strips.

- Now bring the ends of string around to the other side of the ball and tie it again. I tied mine 3 times. Cut off any extra string.

- Drop the splash balls into a bucket of water. Grab one and soak your opponent!
