I hate cleaning the outside windows and sides of my home. Cleaning the outside of my car is not much fun either. If you are like me, here is an article that will help us to get the cleaning done and have fun.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Foaming Soap
  • Large Squirt Guns
  • Hose
  • Friends or Children
  • Towels
  1. Step 1

    Gather a group of people, friends or children, who want to have a water fight. Explain to them that there will be targets they need to squirt as well as each other. Make two teams.

  2. Step 2

    Explain the Rules.

    Which ever teams finishes cleaning the target get the points. Each target is worth five points. At least one person will need to be a score keeper. You may need more than one score keeper if you have a large group. One of the Score keepers will be the only person who can use the hose. Unless you have more than one hose then it can be one score keeper per hose you want to use.

    Anyone who does not want to get wet can be a score keeper kept at a far distant.

    The hose can be used to make the teams scatter. This will help to keep the game moving.

    Make a safe spot. The safe spot is a place where player can go to await for the hose to refill the squirt guns. There is no squirt of water from other player in the safe zone.

    If the areas you wish to clean is too large. You can do the game/cleaning in parts. Make two or three rounds for the game.

  3. Step 3

    Fill the squirt guns full of water.
    Spray all targets with the foaming soap. You can get the foaming soap in different colors. Lots of colors make the game more fun for everyone.

  4. Step 4

    Start the game. Play until all the targets are clean. Sorry the losing team needs to help the score keepers clean up. At least you should just have to put the water guns and hose away.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure you keep the towels in a dry spot.
