Sail away. Water play with floating boats

Simple, fun, and hands-on play. Today I created these simple boats for floating.
For this all you need-
-Plastic cup (cut the top portion of the cup off)
-Straws
-Tape or decorative washi tape
It's so easy to put together, and my daughter absolutely loved watching them float.
We took a bin and filled it with water. I added one drop of blue food coloring, and there you go sail away and visit a few sea creatures.
We had a blast!
Enjoy~

    Have you tried paper boats? We made some and they work really well. Kids loved to decorate them x
