Here's a fun frugal craft! Would your little ones love a ball pit, but you don't want to spend the money?
You just need a small
plastic pool plus several
pool noodles you cut up! If you cut them into 2 inch pieces, you will get 26 pieces per pool noodle. So four pool noodles might be plenty!
Shop at the dollar store for your pool noodles, and you could probably make it for less than $5!
If you make this one, let us know how much it cost you!
NOTE - Children could bite off chunks of this foam, and result in a choking hazard. Best not to use it for children under 3 years old.
For the little ones (or for your dog!), you can buy a bag of 100 balls instead, and add them to your pool!

We used about 300 ball pit balls to make out ball pit - kids have awesome fun, but the cleanup of all the balls all over the house... not so fun.
