Water is free, water is fun

Out comes a pitcher of water.

Out come the plastic measuring cups.Out comes a dishpan.
Out come the ice cubes.

Don't worry if you get thirsty because you have icy cold water.

And you can ask your mom to play with you because you have already been playing in the water all by yourself for over an hour.

The next day you can add neighborhood friends.

And paintbrushes.
And play "paint the deck".
We don't mind getting wet on
a hot September afternoon.

Do you?

**Be prepared to fill up water pitcher/dishpan/ice cubes at least a dozen times

variations: paint the sidewalk, paint the house, paint the front porch, measure water into different size cups, make ice cube soup, use ice cubes to scribble onto the hot pavement
