Toy car wash fun- water play for kids


Today I was scrolling through fb and came a cross a great play idea for my son.  The Imagination Tree is a blog that tons of great ideas  and she shares great stuff on her fb page also (When I saw she had baby dolls for her kids to wash, I thought this would be great for big brother.  He loves washing his trucks all kinds of ways.  We had never done a bucket of water with bubbles in it!  He noticed me scanning fb from my cell and saw the tub of water with the babies and said I want to do that.  I said how about cars in it?  And he was all for that.  I got all the stuff together I thought we could use and we set it up.  He had lots of fun playing with the water,bubbles, sponge, and cars.  Anytime outside is a plus for him!

What we used:  

a bucket, a large bowl, a sponge, bubbles, water, and a towel.

What we did: 

put bubbles and water in bucket then added cars.  Put plain water in large bowl-so he could rinse them off.  He had a sponge to clean them with and a towel he could dry them with if he wanted.  I don’t think he used the towel.

Toy car wash fun!
 I put so much bubbles in you can’t see the cars but they are in there.
 Using his sponge to clean the cars.
 Scrub a dub dub cars in a tub!
 “All shiny and new” as his fire truck book says.
 Washing and rinsing the trucks, cars, and motorcycle.
 After washing he drove them around a while.

He probably would have played here for some time but we had to run out and do a few things so we had to clean up a little too early for him.  Hope to let him play another day for a little bit longer.  He did get a good 30 -45 min out there with his truck and cars though.
Hope you can wash something at your house your kids will enjoy!

    oh, this brings back such great memories! I used to do this with my son, who is now 21, and it was one of his most favorite ways to play with his trucks. He always love washing his Thomas the Tank Engines. Wish I had little ones again, will have to invite my nephew over for car wash time!

    This will be a cool set up for my son who likes to paint his cars with tempera paint and then takes them to the bathroom sink for a car wash. Thanks for the idea!
