cheap summer thrill


A while back while looking for fun activities to do around the house, Wesley and I came up with this.

Materials Needed:
* toddler/preschooler
* slick floor (we still have linoleum but hardwood would work as well)
* one adult to do all the work




(the whining you heard at the end of the video was simply
due to the fact that he didn't want the spinning to stop)


**No preschoolers or pregnant mothers were harmed in the making of this video.


12 coins in my pocket:

Ooo that would make me sick. But glad that the kiddo enjoyed it.

Melissa said...

The things that we can do before our equilibrium dies. I cannot even ride on rollercoasters anymore. It stinks to get old.

Teesa said...

That made me laugh pretty hard. Great idea. I'm not going to let Sam watch this video b/c he'll want to do it. Poor kid doesn't get to do anything fun with his defib!

None of my floors are clean enough to do this. I'd get a kid about 1/4 of a turn and they'd get stuck in the filth...

Sarah said...

I LOVE it! It was so funny to watch but better in person! I thought I was gonna pee my pants while filming it!

Amy said...

Awesome!!! I hope your pregnancy is going well!!

Mike said...

Sure its all fun and games until the toodler throws up....

Wilson Ramblings said...

that looked like so much fun for him! I'll have to try it with Nathan. I would certainly puke, but would love the ride. :)

Tracy P. said...

Oh, is that ever funny! It would make me sick just watching him though--spinning and I are not friends!

McLeod Family said...

You are too funny!!! I still would love to see you!!

I love that game and watching the kids eyes bounce after we have stopped. Or there is the variation of getting them up fast and making them walk....great for parental laughter....
