Hot summer days
Can’t beat the $8 but great quality you get. If you have a pool you know how many towels you go thru in a day so you definitely need enough. The designs are super cute too.
Kids Beach Towel, 30-in x 60-in.
If your kids love bubbles Walmart is the place to go $10 for a 4L jug of bubbles. Such a great deal in our home we go thru a lot of bubbles so definitely worth it.
Gazillion 4 L Bubble Solution, 4L
Hands down the best deal if you want a lot of entertainment but don’t want to be the one blowing the bubbles.
Gazillion Ultimate Bubble Mania
Bubble guns are great if your kids are old enough to hold them and walk around with them in there hands. My oldest son loves his bubble gun ( even tho we do spill a bit of bubbles) that’s ok he spend hours walking around with his bubble gun spraying ...
Bubble Guns for Kids and Toddlers, 2 Pack Bubble Gun Blower with Bubble Solution Refill, Automatic Bubble Blower for Party Favors, Summer Toy, Outdoor Fun, Birthdays and Wedding Party
We just bought this pool and the size is perfect as we are in a town house with shared green space meaning we’ll bring it in every night. We can fit a kiddy slide in it and they have hours of entertainment out of it.
Bestway Rectangular Inflatable Family Wading Pool, 8.5-ft x 5.8-ft x 20-in
This is the pool my kids started with. We did upgrade but we kept this one for my youngest one to play in later this year/ next year. Super easy to keep cool and tip up at the end of the night living in townhouses with shared green space.
Kiddie & Inflatable Pools
These balls are so much fun, my two older kids love these balls so much they’re so bouncy and you can kick ‘em, bounce them and throw them back and fourth. Hours of entertainment just in balls.
Assorted 9" Rainbow Ball, 1pc.
These are so fun my son got one for his birthday and they love it for the bath and the pool. It floats so it’s perfect if they can’t quite get underwater yet.
Swimbuddy Inflatable Plush Shark, Swimbuddy Inflatable Plush
Definitely worth the price for how many driving toys you get. The pool I have isn’t very big and we don’t even fill it that full so we just use them to play with and I did get them goggles to start trying to dive.
44PCS Kids Water Toys Underwater Set with Bag
Rainy summer days
Have a little rock collector, these markers are perfect for making those rocks extra special. Perfect time to paint them on a rainy summer day then let them dry and a great way to spruce up your garden.
Acrylic Paint Markers, 24 Colors, Art Pens
Best washable paint out there I find it always comes off my daughter when she paints. Great quality for a great price.
Crayola 10x59ml Paint Jars Assorted Colors
My daughter is my crafter so when it’s rainy that’s what I get her to do. So I bought her, her own paint brushes to get creative with.
Crayola 3pk Bundle 4 Assorted Flat Brushes
Best decision to buy these I bought this for my son for his birthday. All you do is fill the cap with water screw it on and let them do the rest. Best part let it dry and they can reuse it.
Melissa & Doug Water Wow! Dinosaurs Pad
Two words; life saver!
I bought two for each of my older kids for when they paint saves a lot of mess. Just wipe off the smock and you’re good to go.
BOUBONI Kids Art Smock Apron 2 Pcs Long Sleeve
I always keep little kits like this around (mostly for my daughter) for rainy days specially Micheal’s always has great deals on. This was a lot of fun my daughter loved creating her own bottles full of sand to decorate her room with.
Summer Sand Art Bottle Craft Kit by Creatology
Great little kits to have around. My daughter loves painting I display them around my house and I think it’s just so cute to have pieces of them around.
