Unless you’re living under a rock (which, honestly, might be the coolest place you could be right now), you know that this summer has already been a scorcher. As we approach August, parents across the country are asking themselves how to keep their kids entertained and cooled off outside so they don’t spend their whole summers cooped up. There’s no better time to invest in some backyard water toys to keep not only the kids but also the whole family engaged and refreshed—and Walmart has you covered with some major deals, just in time for that peak summer heat.
The ongoing Walmart sales include water toy options for every age, from a 14-piece beach tool set (discounted to under $4) with buckets and shovels galore to a water table with fishing accessories sure to provide hours upon hours of enjoyment. For littles who are too young for water tables, an inflatable splash pad is a fun way for babies to cool off and enjoy splashing around — for less than $17. Older kids will love the Liquidator Water Blaster Pool Toy, which looks like a regular pool noodle but has the ability to shoot water up to 25 feet. And at under $4 for a set of two, you can afford to stock up and sponsor a neighborhood-wide game. Bigger ticket items are on sale too, like this incredibly versatile kiddie picnic table that converts into a sand and water table, on sale from $179.99 down to $99.99.
Nothing is worse than stocking up on summer toys only to have them clutter up the yard in the off-seasons, but luckily many of these on-sale water toys can be easily tucked away in a garage or storage area when not in use. Case in point: This foldable swimming pool that’s a blast for kids and pets alike! So go ahead and give your kids the summer they deserve. And maybe even get yourself something while you’re at it.
