If you have a pool or are about to have one installed in your backyard then now is the time to start taking a good hard look at pool toys. Sure a pool is fun for kids to play in with some friends but its a whole lot more fun when there is a good variety of pool toys close at hand. For teens and preteens, there is a wide variety of competitive pool ball games that are available that will keep them burning off steam for hours on end. One favorite is water basketball that involves them trying to get the ball through a hoop device that is floating on pontoons. There is also a number of pool toys that involve colorful sinking plastic toys that the kids can dive for and retrieve to score points. Of course, not everything is a contest in a pool, so you will need some simple flotation devices for the kids to propel themselves around on. New durable sponge rubber has replaced air for many of the flotation devices that are now available and it has proven to be a better choice. Inflatable air toys are notorious for springing leaks and they always have the air inflation nozzle that can scratch if the play gets a little rough, which it often does. Another great idea is a swim mask and snorkel that kids just love to wear in the pool. Remember to pick up a big container to keep the pool toys in such as a big garbage can that you can store in the pump house. Another great idea for keeping the pool toys up and out of the way is a big piece of netting that you can hang on the fence in a cool shady place.
