Swimming Floatie Style

The girls wanted to drag out a bunch of inflatable animals today to play with in the pool. Generally, I am a fan of anything that gets them out of the house on a nice day. They both tend to be homebodies; although Chloe is far worse than Alexa in this area. At any rate, I drug the animals up from the basement. Relics from birthdays gone by that have held up surprisingly well. For Chloe's 2nd birthday, I ordered a pack of inflatable jungle animals. They came in a pack of 12 for about ten dollars. It was a cheap way to create a theme and give the kids something to play with. On her fourth birthday we were entrenched in the dinosaur theme as Chloe was all about dinosaurs for about three years.

They did things like... ride the dinosaur.

Pile all the foaties in the pool for a bath.

Pile all the floaties in and climb in too!

Use the dinosaur as a swimming obstacle and swim under it... 

Just a few of the things they decided to try out.
