Summer project #2: Splort balls
We’ve made these before, but our last batch was looking pretty sad, so we made some new ones. They’re a super easy alternative to water balloons that take about 10% of the time to make and with no annoying latex crumbs all over your yard when they’re done. Plus they’re reusable. I think I got the idea for these on some Pinteresty website before Pinterest was invented.
You take some inexpensive kitchen sponges…
(please ignore surrounding evidence of life in my house)
cut them into strips and stack them up however you please…
put rubber bands around their middles and fluff them out a bit…
and you’re all set. Just dunk them in a bucket or bowl of water and throw them at whoever doesn’t mind getting wet.
And that, friends, is what we call Splort Balls.
