Tie-Dye tradition

by | Sep 5, 2014 | Uncategorized | 0 comments

We have a Summer tradition of making tie dye shirts for our family to wear on our summer day trips. Usually we make them at the beginning of the summer, but Hubby was busy with lessons right after school let out, so we decided to delay it until our family summer fun started when his lessons were over. It’s always fun engaging in this family tradition with the boys – you never know how messy it will be!

The colors blending always fascinates five year old Sweet Pea! I love that we sneak some science in there without necessarily intending to!

Wearing similar shirts has always been our ‘thing’ I guess, but it really makes it much easier to spot each other in a crowd! It doesn’t feel quite so uniform-ish if we are wearing something we created ourselves! Hubby and I try to make sure the colors used on a each shirt are the same, but leave the scrunching, folding and squirting up to each child. They actually asked to make more this year!

 I know it’s Fall now, but do you have any summer family traditions we should try next year?
