Making it fun~ Without the Cost

One of the princesses recently started soccer. The King and Queen had bought the princess a soccer ball years ago - but alas, it was the wrong size for her new soccer criteria. So... what is a frugal palace to do - but head to a second hand shop and find a ball for merely a pound or two. Pump it up, if it doesn't hold air then a frugal king knows to put the tire slime in the ball and roll it around (thus sealing any small invisible holes). To add a bit of glitz, glam, or make it special for the princesses one can either decorate this recycled ball with stickers or one can use paint pens and make it an original piece of art! (Pictures will be posted soon!)
Until next time, may your palace be sparkling, may your family be well fed and in good health, and your resources be plentiful, all because you choose to be wise and frugal, for both your family and your palace!
