It’s been an unseasonably warm spring in the Valley of the Sun, but we Phoenicians know just how to make things more bearable almost immediately: add water! Whether a water gun fight, a dip in the pool, or a party full of water attractions, the cold, wet stuff changes our mood instantly and makes the hot weather fun. Here are some ideas to add a little wetness to your next event.
Bubble Mania
Sure, it’s not really water, but you can’t make bubbles without water, right? And bubbles are that perfect medium between too cold to get in the pool and too hot to just sit out in the sun. We all loved bubble baths when we were kids, and a bubble party is a lot like that. With a foam machine rental, you can fill up the yard with bubbles to run through, throw at friends, slide on, and make decorative hairstyles. What’s not to love?
Water Slide
Part bounce house, part slip-n-slide, an inflatable water slide is a perfect way to get a little wet while running around outside in the sun. Just add water to a slide rental, and you’re on your way. And water from the hose is always a little on the chilly side, so it’ll feel refreshing and cold all at the same time. Choose a theme that works with the rest of the party, put on your swimsuits, and unleash the fun.
Dunk Tank
Add a little bit of baseball skill to a lot of cold water and you have yourself a dunk tank. These novelties are perfect for school functions and company picnics, since the higher-ups are usually elected to have a seat in the tank for a period of time. Then employees and students show their love with balls thrown strategically at the target, releasing the seat and allowing the person in the tank to take a quick dunk. Make sure everyone has a change of clothes; people are going to get wet.
Inflatable Move Screen
Okay, this idea doesn’t actually have water attached to it, but rather than putting movie watchers on the lawn, how about tossing everyone in the pool? A poolside movie turns a typical party into a swim-in, and guests can float on a noodle, raft, or swim laps while watching the latest release. The best part is that you get to keep cool, enjoy a desert evening outside, and have libations close at hand. Sounds like a perfect party to us.
So don’t let a little rise in the thermometer put a damper on your party plans. Instead of getting frustrated that summer is just around the corner, take advantage of the warmer weather by adding a little water to your next party or get-together. Whether you choose a foam party, water slide, dunk tank, poolside movie, or a combination of many, you’ll be guaranteed a wet and wild time.
