Tired of the hygiene activities? Please say no! This one is so fun! Scrub scrub scrub those germs away. But seriously, pushing the pom poms in and out of the hands is very entertaining, even for adults!

Just make sure to use soft bristle brushes or you might ripe the bag. And a little tip for little ones with razor claw nails, add a layer of clear packing tape to the front of the bag. It will prevent any leaks!
