I got my Kids this slip n slide from the store when it got really hot here a week ago. For some reason they just danced around the outside of it and wouldn't get wet and slide. This week it has been overcast and rainy at times but I sent the kids out to play and when they came to the door I noticed they were soaked! Don't ask me why but for some reason they decided it would be fun to run in the sprinklers in 65 degree weather and get completely wet in their clothes. Why? I'm just going to have to say because they are boys!
