Water table question
What do you have your DC wear when they're playing with the water table? I bought one for James on Saturday and he's been having a blast with it with no water in it.
Is it still too chilly to use water in it? Do I put him in a rash-guard shirt and a bathing suit? How wet do they actually get? What about shoes? (I way overthink things, sorry  )

Re: Water table question
which water table did you get?
I put about a cup of water and DS went ballistic.
ETA: We have it on our balcony which gets super hot in the mornings, its was close to 80 there by 10am.
He got his shirt little wet, and I just changed him right after.
I was thinking of putting on one of these bibs on him

Re: Water table question
When ours arrives I plan on putting a small amount of water in it.. not enough to splash and actually get him soaked. I'll just keep him in regular clothes till summer... then it's just a bathing suit, or just no shirt LOL. But then I'll also be adding tons more water

Re: Water table question
You are way over thinking this   Just put him in comfy clothes that are easy to change and you don't mind getting dirty - because he WILL find dirt and mix it in the water  James is going to love it!!!

We got him the LIttle Tylkes Spiralin' Seas - it's so cute! 
I like the idea of a smock until it gets warmer out!

I'm a head case.  Because I don't have a bazillion other things on my mind, I need to worry about what my son wears to play with water.

Peyton has already used her this year a few times. She likes it pretty full. She wears her regular clothed(usually bathing suit in the summer) She gets pretty wet, but, no biggie. I change her when she is done.

I agree - we have one that is sand and water. It's full and he loves playing in it -- I just change him after cuz it's everywhere - pants and shirt...it's part of being a kid IMO

Re: Water table question
JJ got his for Easter & used it on that really warm day with full water in it. He started out in shorts & a tshirt but soaked himsefl (poured water over his head numerous times), so I changed him to no shirt & bathing suit. He wears his crocs bc they are the easiest things for him to run in even when his feet are completely soaked.

Re: Water table question
We have the spiraling seas as well.
DS wore regular clothes the day he played in it - and his sneakers - and just dumped water overhimself for the most part. I got him little sandals for $8 from Kohls to use when he plays with it and will either put him in regular clothes or a bathing suit and just change him when he's done.
