I went to visit my parents house recently. I had to smile when I saw my moms “homemade sprinkler”. Growing up on a limited budget we learned to live on less by doing without a lot of things or being creative and making our own. My Mom was watering her flowers, her store bought water mister broke. So she just made her own out of a two liter soda bottle.
She carefully used an ice pick and poked holes into the bottom of the bottle and along the sides. She then added an extra attachment to the bottom of the hose so the bottle would screw right on…. and in just a few minutes she was back to watering her flowers without knocking off the petals with the harsh stream of water from the hose.
I think my kids would have fun playing with this as well…
