I wanted a hard plastic pool with a slide this year for the kids, like we had when we were little, since Cam is finally into slides, but I couldn't find one anywhere. I ended up buying a an inflatable that managed to have most of the features I wanted. The part pictured is the shallow splash pool, which I figured would be a great way to 'ease' into the whole pool idea (for a somewhat water-shy boy) and also nice introduction into outdoor bathing for Riley. The second part of the set is is a deeper pool with a slide that you can attach to aim into the shallow part. However, since spring is just finally beginning to show the slightest bit, I only filled the splash pad for now.
After we came in Cam kept asking for 'more pool,' while doing little swimming motions with his arms. I can't wait until it actually gets warm out this summer! I think he's thrilled that for once we're encouraging him to sit in water while fully dressed, rather than scolding him for it.
