Cheap Toys for Your Inflatable Pool
The first week after you have your inflatable pool setup, it's fun for everyone and everyone's happy. But you know how long the attention spans of kids are these days, they need new ways to enjoy the pool or they'll start to lose interest in it. So why not add a few toys to make the pool experience more diverse. It's not only fun it's good training (swimming and cardio) too. Here are some suggestions for cheap toys that give you a lot of fun for your bucks.
Pool Diving Toys
I bought a set of Wild Planet Dive Balls for my nephew and he has really been enjoying them and he asks me to bring them out every time he comes over to use the pool. He loves to see how many of the 3 he can fetch without coming up for a breathe of air. I paid under ten bucks, which i think is one of the best pool toy deals out there. The reviews for this item on Amazon is also amazing! Highly recommended.
We also bought a set of Diving Games Water Wigglers Dive Sticks, which was also below ten dollars. These wriggle through the water as they descend, and my niece is absolutely crazy for these. She sits in her mother arms and watch them "swim" to the depths of the pool while laughing at the top of her lungs. Her brother then collects them, and she throws them back in. Note that the styles in the sets vary, and that you might not get all fish.
There are of course a lot of other diving toys out there on the market, but these are ones i have tried myself and been really satisfied with. Check out amazon for more diving toys.
Pool Basketball Toys
My friends son is a basketball lover, so they decided to buy a floating basketball pool set, and have not regretted it since. The kids are having so much fun with it, their parents are sometimes having a hard time getting them out of the pool. From what I've seen, it must be a pretty durable thing as well, because they play pretty hard at times. They bought the Swimways Spring Jam Basketball set, and it comes with a ball included. It costed them around 30 dollars and they are very satisfied with it.
Other Toys
There are so many toys out there on the market. I have not really bought a lot yet, but i did some research to try and find a few that looks like fun, for future purchases. The next one i will buy will be Swimways Gobble Gobble Guppies. This looks just so cute, and i know my niece will love this!
I'm also going to buy a couple Max Liquidator Eliminator, that I'm sure the kids will have a lot of fan squirting water on eachother (and very likely me as well) with. I like that these float in the pool and that you can easily get them out after the kids are done in there.
