Colorful Pools For Little Swimmers

When I was a kid, backyard swimming pools were the highlight of my friends' summer and mine. We would spend hours wading in shallow water, pretending to tan like "the celebrities do" and admiring the colors of the inflatable ring around us. I remember being drawn to the more vibrant outdoor pools because the traditional light blue was just too drab. Now, each summer, I keep a lookout for the brilliant hued brands to treat my own little backyard swimmers and their neighborhood buddies.

Here are the most colorful and reliable I've found:

Intex Rainbow Ring Pool Play Center

Perfect for small families with tiny tots, this wading pool is ideal for children up to 7 years of age. Parents can sit by the side and assist their curious kids down a water slide, watching with delight as they giggle under a "sea-spraying" rainbow arch. The pool holds 77 gallons of water, ringed with beautiful fluorescent colors that every youngster will admire. Brightness is uplifting and provides an instant good mood to your splashing toddlers.

Intex Recreation Swim Center Paradise Lagoon

With a capacity of up to 151 gallons, this backyard paradise can comfortably fit a small family of 4-5, with toddlers of 3 years and older. The designs on the inflatable sides feature depictions of suns and vivacious palm trees in electrifying lime green and dynamic orange tones. As with most inflatables, there is the risk of popping (especially when it comes to rambunctious kids sliding against the sides), which is why this pool comes equipped with a repair patch and shelf box.

Intex Play Box Pool

For the smallest of the little swimmers, this miniature pool doubles as a first-time play area for tots of 1-3 years. The bottom is quilted to provide pre-toddlers with optimum comfort for long periods of splashing and playing. It's a great way to get your sweetie used to wading water! They'll be mesmerized by the peppy green and pink tinges.
