I live the idea with all the pipes, I’ll do that with my young son, he will love it!!!! I used food colouring a lot too, a favourite was when we filled latex gloves with coloured water and froze them overnight before dropping then into the water tray!!!!

Yet another awesome idea.
I’m going to have to STOP looking on your site because now I have sooo many ideas and not enough hours in the day to do everything I find!

Thanks for dropping a line. Sometimes I use regular liquid food colouring, but a lot of the time I use the Wilton icing gels. They come in little pots. Are you finding staining happens at full strength directly out of the container or when mixed with water? I’m not sure if you’re referring to staining on clothing or staining on hands. I believe all food colouring will stain if you get it directly on your clothing, full strength, straight from the container, but when it’s mixed in the water, we don’t experience staining on clothing, dish-cloths or hands. My fingers were stained blue yesterday because I wiped around the edges of the little pots WITH my fingers to clean them up a bit: full on food colouring on my hands, but they were completely clean by the end of the day. The handwashing throughout the day removed all traces of it.

What do you use to colour the water with.It doesn’t look like it stains. I am yet to find a colouring that doesn’t. Thanks

Thank you, Hannah! I love knowing that our ideas are inspiring you to do some of the same at your house! Hope you enjoy your waterworks as much as we enjoyed ours!

Hope your weather warms up soon, Alisa! I miss puddle jumping! Living on a hill means the rain runs down the street before it ever has the chance to form puddles. 😛

We are making do with rather a lot of puddle jumping recently!

Thanks, Ali! Yes, I hadn’t though that they would explore them that way, but they had a great time fitting all the different pieces together!

We do lots of outside water play, but I think adding in some plumbing supplies would mix it up a little so I’ll have to have a trip to the hardware store soon. Your outdoor play ideas are a great inspiration for me as we try to get outside everyday and you always look like you have some much fun, thanks!

Aw, thanks, Jessica. 🙂 Isn’t it great that they’re still enjoying the ocean bin? We’re still pulling ours out several times a week along with the construction bin and the baby bath station. We’ve gotten so much mileage out of them!

This looks like so much fun and I know my kids will love it. Definitely going to try it! I can totally see my kids doing this for quite a while too. They’re still dipping into that ocean bin, in fact. I haven’t put it away yet. 🙂
