Water Party for My Sunday School Class

~Saturday, July 9, 2011

I started in June teaching the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade Sunday school class, and I have been really enjoying my time with them each week! I wanted to plan a fun outing with them this summer, but it was just so hot I wasn't sure what we could do, so I got a little wading pool, a sprinkler, some water balloons, and we had a water party! Tommy grilled hot dogs, we had all the fixin's and just enjoyed fellowship with the kids parents, and playing lots of cooling off games!

These are pictures from the Foot Freeze game...the pool was filled with water, and a cooler full of ice!

The boys and girls had to use their toes, to pick up the little plastic fish in the pool, and with their feet and toes only then place the fish in the bowls sitting next to them!! :)

 Our little one got involved too!!

Then we moved on to the Musical Sprinkler game....The sprinkler was turned on and off as the kids danced to the music, when the music went off you had to hold your position and the sprinkler came on!

I didn't get any pictures of the water balloon fight, our Student Pastor Adam decided it would be fun, to dump a bucket of the cold water from the foot freeze pool over my head!!

Here we are back inside to decorate some cookies

Final group shot before everyone went home...First one is a good group picture the second picture shows just how silly these kiddos are!! :)

We all had a really great time, lots of food, fun, and fellowship

Thanks to all the parents that came and brought their kids, and those that stayed and helped out!

and a very special thanks to Chase and her friend Caroline for all their help, this party would not have been as successful as it was with out your help! Love you guys :)
