Bubble Calendar

Have you seen this? A calendar made from bubble wrap. (Photo from bubblecalendar.com)



This would not last a whole year in my house. Popping only one bubble a day would be like eating only one kernel of popcorn. Or one potato chip. Even eating only one day's chocolate out of the advent calendar can be difficult. But this calendar?


Impossible.


A few weeks ago, Ernest and a friend got hold of some long strips of the stuff and had a stomp fest. And there were some of the big bubbles Amazon uses...each bubble about the size of a sandwich bag...which make an extremely loud and satisfying POP.

I think that calendar is one of those great "ideas on paper"....no...huh-uh...that would last MAYBE a day in our house.
My boys and Ernest could do some damage together!!
Oh...and those ones from Amazon? The boys found a way to slightly speeze the air out and the sound is...well...not a POP...but a sound that got more giggles than what it really should have!!!
~~sigh~~little boys.

that would last about an hour in our house then gone!

Maybe it's an exercise in developing self restraint? Because you would need a lot!

It would last maybe two hours in my house. But it's fun to think about.
