slip and slide




 For our ward summer social they had a BBQ and a massive slip and slide. It was pretty funny to watch the kids go down.  Some were very hesitant and just barley crept down, others took it at a full run then landed with a thud and a smile.
I remember when I was younger we would make these kind of slip and slides all the time.  It works best if you add a little dish soap.  Sometimes we would dig a whole in the ground at the bottom to create a pool of water to land in those ones were the funnest.All you need is a large sheet of plastic sheeting.
Other times we would go grass sliding during a summer rain storm. In our front yard we had an acre of grass leaving plenty of room for grass sliding.  When we got too cold we would connect a hose with a sprinkler to a hot water the tap in the garage then hang it over the basketball hoop.  That way we would warm up a little before we headed out for more slide time.
