Now that we are back in my hometown, my kids get to experience the things I did when I was there age. One of those things is the Park Carnival. It was the highlight of the summer when I was young.
It isn’t quite the same now, but it was fun to have them participate. They still had a great time.
One of the requirements as a parent is to supply some of the prizes for the carnival. Each child that is involved in summer activities is asked to bring a cake for the cake walk and 2 12-packs of pop.
Of course, I couldn’t just throw a little frosting on a cake, I wanted to do something a little more fun. I spent the entire day getting them ready, but it was worth it.
My girls used a lot of their tickets at the cake walk to try to win their own cakes.
I am not sure how many tickets they used, but little one accomplished her goal!
Do you have a a summer carnival that you participate in with your kids? Do you love the cake walk, too? I know I do and I can’t wait to eat little one’s cake
