The Kiddie Car Wash

I am a little behind in my posting pictures...but a while ago I saw a "kiddie car wash" with directions and I thought it would be a fun thing to make for my three grand daughter's birthday...they are all within two weeks of each other...So Lacey and I went to Home Depot with the list and purchased the PVC pipe, and all the fittings that the directions called for...then we asked Scott to help us cut and assemble this car wash...The kids LOVE it!  We had it up for the birthday party, but I was so busy with visiting, I didn't get pictures that day of ALL the children running through the car wash...but two days ago...when the temperature was in the 90's, Addie, Tristan and Jalen were all together and I was watching them so we turned on the kiddie car wash and added three lengths of slip & slide and away they went...



As you can see, we drilled holes in the top and the sides and even across the bottom....just like a car wash, they get sprayed in all directions!  I added some fun duct tape around some of the pipes.  If you are interested in making one you can go HERE to get the directions for making one,      and here is another one from a little girls birthday party!  I didn't add a lot of the extra's...like the sponges or the strips of shower curtains, I know my little ones, they are kind of "rough" on things, and I figured those things wouldn't last long...so I just didn't bother with them!  I also purchased some buckets at the dollar store for the kids to have and they love filling them up with water and dumping them on each other or throwing them on the slip and slide!  This was the best present ever!!
