Tightwad Training Camp Archive

Thanks for visiting the Tightwad Training Camp blog. This blog is now in archived-only status with no new posts. I've decided to leave it online & accessible due to a request for the information within the older posts.

If you are interested in both frugality and healthy eating, you might enjoy my other blog, Supper In Seconds, where I present recipes from scratch that take 10 minutes or less hands-on time to prepare.

30 Days of Tips - Toy Sailboats

Tip #15: Save those styrofoam mushroom containers for a perfect rainy day activity: sailboats! Take an empty mushroom container & poke a straw into the bottom (cut off any bendy part at the top). Attach a construction paper triangle to the top of the straw & enjoy watching your sailboat float away.

Kids can float their sailboats inside the bathtub or on sunny days, in a swimming pool. On rainy, rainy days, what's more fun than sailing the boat down the street?
