Car Wash

I’ve been spending my normal blogging time (naptime and night-time) sleeping off yet another sinus infection, but hopefully I’ll get my blogging mojo back soon.  I’ve got all kinds of projects and crafts and recipes swirling around in my head, so stay tuned for a more inspiring/crafty/delicious/coherent post!

Here’s a great activity for all of those ride on/in toys.  Give your child a bucket of soapy water, a sponge, and a squirt bottle and let them wash their car!  This truck (isn’t it adorable?) was a 2nd birthday gift from my parents last year. This kept The Littlest Apple busy for nearly an hour as The Picky Apple and I worked in the yard nearby.

Sticking out your tongue helps you concentrate….

And some detail work….

If only our cars were this clean!!

Don’t have a big ride-on toy or an outdoor space for car washes?  Why don’t you have a mini car wash in a tub/sink of soapy water with your toy cars?  This is especially fun after those toy cars have been used for Tire Track Painting.
