This Fairy Can Really Fly

Forgive me, my house has been taken over by fairy dust of late. So when I saw a way to kick them outside to the pool, I had to investigate for a little breathing room.

The Fountain Fairies from Swimways) will make your little one’s staycation a lot more exciting. Fill them with water like you would any tub toy, then place them in their lily pad base (which floats, by the by) and the pressure sets her off into the air – while your kids get all wet (and cool off).

The fairies themselves are a lot cuter in person (in fairy?) than they are online, right down to their sparkly wings and teeny weeny yellow bikinis (no polka dots though – I was so disappointed!). Get one from Amazon for $12.99.
