Say adios to those old rusty metal sprinklers that just go back and forth and say hello to these super fun giant inflatable water sprinklers for the yard!
The Top 3
We all grew up jumping through that one busted sprinkler over and over again. Sure we didn’t have a pool, but neither did anyone else. We were perfectly content closing our eyes and running through the sprinkler until it was time for supper. These days, sprinklers for the kiddos have come such a long way. First off, so many of them are inflatable (those are our favorites) and most of them are giant. Yep, we’re talking taller than most adults ranging anywhere from 6-feet to 7-feet. Especially with everything going on in the world, it’s a nice break for them to put down their toys and head outside. Might as well stay cool in the summer sun while they’re at it!
You and your kids will be the envy of the neighborhood this summer when they’re squealing with delight running around underneath these giant unicorns, elephants, dinosaurs, or underneath this total magical rainbow. Look how much more fun these sprinklers are compared to what we grew up with!? Check out our picks for the best water sprinklers for kids (so far) this summer of 2021.
The Best Choice of 2021
1. The New Giant 7-Foot Tall Inflatable Monster Sprinkler – Buy It Here
Don’t worry, this big guy is anything but scary! This friendly monster stands at almost 7-feet tall, is easy to inflate and set up and will have the kids (and the big kids) running around and having fun all day long.
The Magical Choice
2. Giant 7-Foot Tall Inflatable Unicorn Sprinkler for Kids – Buy It Here
This is the sprinkler that everyone is buzzing about this summer and is already all over Instagram. This magical unicorn stands proudly at over 7-feet tall and sprays a ton of water out of her beautiful unicorn horn. We assume it’s a ‘she’ but we don’t judge. The extra large valve makes blowing it up and deflating it pretty easy. Obviously we don’t recommend trying to blow this up with your mouth, so make sure you have an electric pump handy or, you know, have some laughs blowing it up at your local gas station and walking it back home. It’ll be like a parade.
