Dog days of summer? It's hot! I'm bored! I'm tired of being stuck inside! It's important to stay active year round, but sometimes in the summer it can be harder to convince kids to play outside. Research shows that being outdoors has so many benefits for children. Kids who play outside and stay physically active year round generally have a lower risk of childhood obesity, and even develop more healthy eating habits. Exposure to the right amount of sunlight boosts the immune system (remember to use appropriate sun protection). Cognitive benefits include improving memory and concentration, strengthening reasoning skills, and assisting in brain development as children have opportunities to take risks and discover new things. Children also benefit psychologically from playing outdoors-studies show a reduction in anger and a decreased risk for problem behavior. So how do you keep kids active in the summer? Simply put-add some water play to the mix! Check out our collection of reasonably-priced and quality-made water and pool toys. If you're looking for a water slide, there's nothing ordinary about the selection of slides we offer! Choose our 12'L Inflatable Water Slide with a sprinkler built on the side, or the 25'L Ultimate Dual Water Slide with Sprinkler set in the middle (the longest on the market-big enough for two riders). Both slides come with inflatable speed boards to ride the waves, and a generous-sized splash pool at the end. We also have a wide variety of sprinklers. Try our colorful Giant Inflatable Rainbow Arch Sprinkler or our bright Inflatable Sunshine Sprinkler! Both are edged in fluffy clouds and have pockets to hold water or sand to create weight for added stability. Combine cooling-off fun with sports, and you have our Inflatable Volleyball Sprinkler (which can also be used as a Soccer Goal Sprinkler). Practice your drills with the Inflatable Tire Run with Sprinkler (which can even be used without the sprinkler for year-round fun). Looking for a more whimsical sprinkler? Our Mermaid Tail Sprinkler and Whale Sprinkler Pool make the perfect unique addition to water play, and are perfect for the younger ones. Speaking of the little guys, we didn't forget them when designing the best water play around. The Fountain Splash Pad Sprinkler combines a shallow pool with a gently spraying fountain on the rim of the pool (and you'll love the colorful printed fish!) Bring along the portable SunShade Pop-Up Pool with UV-Protected Canopy when you need a quick cool-off for toddlers as young as 9 months (it even has a convenient canopy to keep kids protected from the sun). If your idea of a perfect summer day is a trip to the pool, we've got you covered there too! Our BattleBoard Squirter Set lets swimmers engage in "friendly" water combat. Try our super fun (and super big) Vinyl SeeSaw Rocking Boat or the Inflatable Super Backyard Water Slide. Toss a Watermelon Ball or the Soar 'n' Spin water discs back and forth, or gather little fish with the Spark Shark Fish Hunt Pool Game. What are you waiting for? Get ready for some splish-splashy fun with the best water toys around! Welcome summer!
