NOW that summer has arrived - and the school holidays - you may be looking for fun ways to entertain your kids in the garden.
You may wish to get yourself down to Tesco, as they currently have an outdoor water playcentre for children which is in their sale.
Mum Beth, who posts under , shared the inflatable set she picked up from her local supermarket.
She bought the Funsicle’s Funky Fruit PlayCentre, which comes with a slide, mini paddling pool and a ring-toss game.
And as the name suggests, it is decorated in a fun, colourful design with pineapple, strawberry and orange features.
Beth wrote: “When I say RUN to Tesco.
“Reduced to clear for £20.
“I found it on the miscellaneous reduced to clear home section, there was only 3 left where I live!”
It is said to measure 2.03m x 1.70m x 1.29m, so you don’t need too much space for it.
Her video has racked up over 4,000 likes, and people seemed keen to snap it up.
One said: “run to Tesco please.”
Another added: “omg how good is this!!”
And a third commented: “*cries in water meter.*”
Whether you’re looking for somewhere safe for the kids to splash about or a large pool for the whole family to cool off in, we’ve found the best paddling pools for your summer of fun.
It goes without saying that children should always be supervised when playing in water, but the age of your children may determine the depth of pool you choose.
Whereas little ones may prefer a shallow splash pad for playing in, older kids may favour a larger, deeper pool which they can dive about in.
If adults want to join in the fun, keep in mind that you'll need plenty of legroom and sturdy inflatable walls.
Many paddling pools also come with a range of accessories and extras, which can all add to the comfort and fun.
From inbuilt sun shades and cupholders, to sprinkler systems and water slides, consider what you want from your paddling pool and whether it’s worth looking beyond the basic two-ringed inflatable.
