A shower Curtain's Unusual Uses

Swimming pool usage: Summer is here and we just bought my daughter a cool swimming pool for her birthday. The very next day monsoons hit, so we haven’t actually got to use it yet. Since we are up in the mountains we may be waiting a while for warm enough temps to use it, but a friend made a suggestion for warming the water.  Fill up your pool a couple of hours before you plan on letting them get in (make sure you move it to a sunny spot first), cover it with a cheap Shower curtain or a shower curtain liner ( these are usually around $5). It works like an insulator and keeps the bugs out. Of course I must add this is only suggested in a yard where NO kids have access without an adult. Let your kids splish splash in the nice warm water.  Go on, get in with em, you know you want too!!  Ahh just like a  jacuzzi minus the dirt those lil feet always find right before they jump in

Art and Craft time: This is a great time to spread out a shower curtain, whether painting, glueing, glitter or fake tattooing ( well – it rhymes anyhow!) So spread it out, have some fun, break out the bristles, paint someone, twist and shout, throw confetti in the air like you just don’t care, share some awe's and share some oooh’s,  paint those adorable baby toes And, ….when you’re done makes clean-up fun!

Going to the Beach? Take out that shower curtain and place it on the sand before you put your blankie or towel down. Can help keep your stuff a lot less sandy. You may prefer to keep it in the car for protecting your seats from sandy bottoms and feet.

Going for a Picnic? Same idea here, lay down the shower curtain so your blankie doesn't get all gunky from mud or wet grass or whatever. Also you could use it as a picnic table cover if you didn’t bring a table-cloth. These are great because they are waterproof and wipe-able.
