We used Sadie's small inflatable on our concrete porch last summer without any problems. But, I know Walmart sells those molded plastic pools every summer for like $15 or $20. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-kiddie-pool#post-1551898 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 17:43:49 +0000 coopsmama 1551898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: oh my goodness that splash pad looks like so much fun!

It's too small. So, I'm getting a large inflatable one that she can walk/splash around in. I want her to have room for toys, balls, friends, etc. PLUS, I want to get in too. It's hot here. :silly: </p> <p>My mom had this one in her backyard last summer for the grandkids, and it was the perfect size, so I think we're going to get it:<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/p/120in-swim-center/-/A-14244133?reco=Rec" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/120in-swim-center/-/A-14244133?reco=Rec</a>|pdp|14244133|ClickCP|item_page.vertical_1&amp;lnk=Rec|pdp|ClickCP|item_page.vertical_1 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-kiddie-pool#post-1551831 Mon, 07 Apr 2014 16:55:30 +0000 GrapeCrush 1551831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got DS this one last year and he loved it!

Unless we use in the front yard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-kiddie-pool#post-1516628 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 09:15:56 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1516628@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: the only downside is that you've got to keep your hose hooked up and running the entire time. My backyard isn't completely flat so water went everywhere!</p> <p>And, you have to be vigilant about getting all the water out of the toys. Ours got moldy and I had to throw it away :(</p> <p>Eta: here it is in action! </p> [attach=1772/14/n2y2dp.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/recommend-a-kiddie-pool#post-1516615 Mon, 24 Mar 2014 09:13:59 +0000 Smurfette 1516615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: OMG, that looks so fun!!
