Indoor Luau

I definitely think outside the box when it comes to parenting! I strive daily to make the day to day tasks extraordinary. I also like to stretch the imaginations of my children and help them to experience things like no one else!

We had an Indoor Luau at our home! I decorated our home (including filling an inflatable pool) and cranked the heat to 75 degrees. Put out a spread of delicious snacks and drinks. We listened to a Luau inspired playlist I created on www.playlist.com. I asked my children to come out into the kitchen in their bathing suits! They were absolutely puzzled -- once they came out to the kitchen they were streaking with excitement and had a really fun time!

 

What We Ate :

Veggie Platter

Fruit Salad

Cheetos

Swedish Fish

Tropical Colored Cupcakes

 

**Not my healthiest spread, I'll admit! But it was colorful and all of the girls favorites **

 

We also had a tasty punch that looked cool too!

 

What We Drank:

Using clear or a patterned see through cup or glass

Pour 2/3 full with Sierra Mist, Sprite, Seven Up or a bubbly clear soda

Put 2 scoops of any flavored Sherbet ( we used Lime,Orange Lemon).

Finish with a brightly colored straw and drink umbrella.

 

It's bubbles up and tastes great.

Our Decorations:

Everything was purchased from The Dollar Tree Store

-Purple Table Cloth

-2 Tropical Luau Mural

-Palm Tree Decoration

-Palm Tree Inflatable for Pool

-Beach Ball

 

 

We had a wonderful time. This was a great activity because it allowed the girls to try something they had never tried before. They still talk about it! I encourage you to try to try something like this! I understand filling a pool in your kitchen might be a little out of your comfort zone but a bathtub works wonders :-)
