The Parachute

Auntie Mia sent Sadie this parachute for her birthday. (Thanks Auntie Mia, we all love it!) It turns out that it IS a very good indoor toy. I had my doubts because the parachute is 10ft. in diameter and our living room is not 10 feet across. But, it turns out that you can jerry-rig it so it makes a pretty good fort.Peek-a-boo, I see Sadie.We put balls on the top of the parachute and kicked them from underneath. Good times at the Sperle household. Eli discovered that the parachute makes an excellent car ramp. The cars go super fast over the slick material.

I'm glad you like it. I knew it would be fun outside but I worried about the fall weather. I am glad it is adaptable to making forts and car slides. yeaaaah!
