Grace went to her first Princess birthday party. She went as Rapunzel and really enjoyed herself. She especially loved the wand she got to bring home!


I got this idea off of a blog (which I found from another blog). I'm horrible at adding links!
Anyway, these are water beads. I had a pack laying around that my mom gave me to use in a vase. Never did that, but found another use. They feel so cool and are great for kids that need a lot of sensory play. I also found more of them at AC Moore for $1.99. Grace loves to scoop them and play ice cream parlor :) All you do is dump them in a bowl of water, wait about 4-6 hours and you have these fun, non-toxic squishy balls. They even bounce. We found that out fast and I was forever chasing down little blue water beads.
