Slip n&#8217; Slides can be fun anywhere, but for maximum excitement, we suggest setting up on a hill!<\/p>\n<p>Once you have your tarp or wrap laid out, secure the corners and edges of your slide with tent pegs. Think about pulling the material tightly to ensure a smooth surface.<\/p>\n<p>After that, take your dish soap and cover your base material with it. One helpful trick is to remember the heavier or thicker the soap, the more extreme the slip!<\/p>\n<p>All that&#8217;s left from there is to turn on the water and get sliding!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Rainbow Fish Cupcakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve had your fill of the slip n&#8217; slide, bring the fun indoors with this delicious recipe by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twosisterscrafting.com\/little-fishy-cupcakes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Two Sisters<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>These lake-themed sweet treats are sure to go over swimmingly.<\/p>\n<p><em>Ingredients:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cake mix\n<ul>\n<li>Be sure to check the box&#8217;s list of ingredients for additional supplies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Buttercream frosting\n<ul>\n<li>For your frosting, you can either buy pre-made icing at your local grocery store, or make your own with the recipe found\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twosisterscrafting.com\/buttercream-frosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here.\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Food coloring<\/li>\n<li>M&amp;Ms<\/li>\n<li>Tiny marshmallows or candy eyes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Directions:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>First, bake a batch of your favorite flavor cupcakes.
