Headed to the Beach…
Our family is headed out for week-long camping adventure at RedFish Lake near Stanley Idaho. The campgrounds and lodge are situated on a gleaming lake in the beautiful Sawtooth Mountains. In planning for our trip, my mother-in-law and fellow crochet crafter; mentioned she has been hard at work on crochet water balloons for the grandkids. Which feed the spark of inspiration for this beach-ready round up to help your kids have more fun in the sun!
Water Play….
Featured first is the crochet water balloon pattern that inspired this post. This ingenious pattern by Left In Knots works up quickly, and guarantees hours of mess-free water play!
