The pool provides young children with a safe place to have splashing fun and practice paddling. It's also a practical paddle pool for parents because it's extremely easy to set up! Apart from an air pump, the paddling pool requires no tools whatsoever. Once a flat, solid surface has been found it's a simple case of inflating the white upper ring and filling the base with water. As the shell of the splash pool fills with water it broadens out and rises. Once it has reached its capacity kids are free to clamber in and have a splash! The shell of the pool is made of hardwearing PVC and polyester, ensuring watery fun for many a sunny season. A set-up and maintenance DVD also comes included. Adult supervision is required when children are in and around pools and water.
