I did a community poll on best inflatable water slides and this was one of the top 2 most recommended options!
Tips for cleaning/storing this slide:
Always let it dry completely out before repacking it, flip it mid dry to make sure the bottoms dries out too
When 100% dry, use leaf blower to remove grass/dirt/sand
Repack and store in a cool/dry space
Use dish soap if there are any spots that need cleaning

Hear me out…these spray bottles will provide so much entertainment to your child outside. Put them to work spraying the yard, mulch, flowers or even their bikes. Sometimes the simplest objects turn into the most fun toy.

Say goodbye to traditional water balloons that leave annoying little pieces all over your yard. These reusable water balloons are a blast for kids ages 2 and up. They can fill them up themselves easily and love popping and refilling them. Only buy the brand Soppycid, there are other knock offs sold that don’t have protection over the little magnets and can be dangerous for little kids.

This spinning sprinkler swirls and twirls as kids run through it to ensure everyone gets wet.

We own and love these water blasters, fun to use in the yard on a hot day or in the pool to shoot water streams at each other.

If you are looking for a mini inflatable pool for kids, we own and love this one by the MinniDip brand. It is big enough for a couple toddlers to play in it together.

This Step2 water table is a blast for kids 1 and up. As soon as kids can stand it is a fun outdoor toy to have for a hot day and will entertain them for years.
To really step up the water table fun, I would add this pump so it constantly streams water! Shop the pump here.

I have brought these pool toys on my last two trips and they have been a hit! These mini octopus’s come in a 6 pack, and fill with water and squirt out. They float so they are perfect for the younger kids who can’t dive yet, however, all three of my kids (6, 4 and almost 2) love playing with them!
