Lipos plus water is much bad juju. You might want to stick with NiMh if you know she's going to be getting wet. If you're going to do it anyway, you're going to have to "completely" seal that battery off from any water. Some guys put their electronics in balloons, grease up the end of the balloon, zip-tie it, tape it... :? The two critical things with Lipo: charge them correctly and don't get them wet.
