    Wooden Hammers For My Munchkins!

    So, I saw an neat idea of hammering golf tees into a pumpkin. Then pulling the tees out to leave holes for the candle light to shine through. Love it!

    But, I don't have enough toy hammers to go around for everyone at the same time. So, I start searching the internet. All I find are tool sets for $$$ or single toy hammers for even more $$$.

    As I continue to search, I come across the most amazing thing: Crab Mallets! Living in the middle of the country, with no oceans around, I have never heard of these wonderful inventions. I was able to get a bunch of wooden mallets that are sturdy and the perfect size for little hands for only $1.99 each.





    We started hammering on our pumpkins today. Two of my boys (ages 3 and 5) spent over and hour on this project. The other munchkins went back and forth between hammering and playing with the normal outdoor toys.

        You are welcome!
        My munchkins are loving this center. The more coordinated can do it totally independently. I do have one that I need push the tee in the pumpkin by hand about an inch and then he can hammer away!

            The seller is probably wondering why the sudden rush on hammers, LOL!
