Ingredients
- 3 sponges (preferably of different colors for a fun look)
- Strong string
- Ruler
- Scissors
Safety Note: Please ensure safe handling of the scissors during preparation and be careful when throwing the sponge ball.
Directions
- Cut each sponge lengthwise into strips that are approximately 1/2 inch wide. You should end up with 5 strips from each sponge.
- Arrange the sponge strips into a rectangle, alternating the colors for a delightful look. Lay the strips side by side until you have a rectangle that is 3 strips high and 5 strips wide.
- Take a piece of strong string and tie it around the center of the sponge rectangle. Pull the string as tightly as you can without tearing the sponges, then secure it with a double knot. Trim the ends of the string.
- Manipulate the sponge strips by pulling and tugging on them until you achieve the desired circular shape.
- Now your sponge ball is ready for play! Dunk it into a bucket of water or a pool, and have fun throwing it around. Remember to always throw gently and safely.
