Frog Pool






Have you ever shipped site to store? Most stores these days have the option and it makes shipping a non issue. My parents wanted to send some gifts for our birthday-a-thon a few weeks ago, but shipping was more than the gifts themselves. Here is where site to store is fantastic. We picked up our package at a near by store and spent the whole afternoon using the gift. We started out as seen above using it as a dunk pool. When Tiago's body (with its lack of fat) began shaking uncontrollably, and when the grass under the slide seemed to cry out for relief and when the slide and pool disconnected, we thought of a new plan.

Splashing wasn't enough for the kids daring enough to slip down a slide into the pool. So we decided to play baseball. Home plate was the pool and plastic ducks were the bases. I was really impressed on how well the kids played and actually hit the pitches that were sent their way. Tiago hit a home run over the neighbor's fence which brought a nice conclusion to the adventure. Great gift!
