DIY Sponge Water Bombs

  • They’re reusable
    Unlike water balloons, sponge bombs can be soaked and used again and again all summer long.
  • They make outdoor play exciting
    Kids love tossing, splashing, and inventing water games in the garden, park, or beach.
  • They are less messy and easier to clean up
    No tiny balloon pieces left all over the grass — just pick up the sponges and play again.

What you need:

  • Kitchen sponges
  • Rubber bands
  • Scissors

How to make:

  1. Cut the sponges into approx. 10cms strips, you’ll need approx. 6 of these.
  2. Hold the sponges together and then place the rubber band in the centre of them.
  3. Twist and jiggle them around so they make a ball shape.

That’s all it takes… now it’s time to have fun with your Sponge Water bombs!
