Sunshine, sand, surf or waves in the pool, kids loooooove the water in the summer.  

If your child's birthday is during the summer months, planning their birthday party can be as easy as combining food, games and water.

If you're lucky enough to live by the ocean, sand, surf, sunshine and plenty of sunscreen are the main ingredients for a splendid birthday party for any age.

If you have a backyard swimming pool, add some kids, some pool noodles, silly games and you're set for a day all can enjoy.

If you aren't by the ocean, a lake, a pond, a river or have a family or community pool you can use, how about a slip and slide? A lawn sprinkler? A blow up pool? 

Kids and water are a great combination for summer time fun for the children as well as the adults.

I love the slice of gum as a float or beach towel, the peppermint as a beach ball and how cute are the sunbathing teddy bears!
