The fun never stops with this giant 88" circumference sprinkler that splashes water as you roll it around! Water sprays out of four fun spray heads.

4 out of 5 stars OK toy   October 28, 2008
H. Santana
I got this toy for a beach themed birthday party and it worked great. The kids were more scared of it because it sprayed water, but thats what it is supposed to do. The water also sprayed very far which made it more fun. Good toy for the price.

S. Jones (Albany, OR, USA)
This is a great toy and lots of fun for the kids, but only lasted about a week before the water started seeping into the ball and it filled up with water. This made it very hard to put away as the water does not come back out easily because it is actually in the air portion of the ball. The hose connection also keeps popping off, but this may be because of the weight of the water on it.


1 out of 5 stars Waste of money!   July 3, 2008
Melissa C. Hoskins (Lexington, SC)
I purchased this for my 6 & 4 year olds to play with.... we followed product instructions, but after only 15 minutes of play, the ball stopped spraying, and began to fill with water.... my husband was afraid it would burst and hurt the children! I contacted Little Tykes and got NO response! Don't WASTE your money!

I told everyone I bought this large beach-ball sprinkler for grandson Devon, but I really bought it for myself. It looked like a fun, cool thing to have during these 106 temps we've been suffering ... and I liked the looks of it. I challenge anyone to look at a beach-ball without thinking of surf-and-turf and happy, fun-filled days of summers past. My mind rocks back to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and the Beach Boys. ... Ah-hhh ... "California Girls," "Good Vibrations," "Surfing U.S.A" ... Who could ever forget those and other big hits they performed?

Devon was drawn to the sprinkler--as people have always migrated to water--and he liked it for about a California minute ... until the sprinklers squirted him directly in the face with mini-force. He enjoyed getting wet, of course, but didn't like the water in his eyes. Besides, he wanted the ball for himself; HIS toy, you know. So, being a smart kid, he crawled beneath the water-streams and kept trying to roll it. That, in itself was amusing to us adults, but frustrating for him.

As a result, because I think it's pretty, I now use it as a yard decoration ... but only when Devon is inside looking out. And when he's napping, I still "run through the sprinkler" from time to time. Just a big kid at heart.

This isn't an educational toy (nor does anyone claim it to be); it's more durable than the usual beach-ball; and I think it's tons of fun. Even if it's not for Devon--after all, he's only one-and-a-half--it makes ME happy. When not outdoors, I enjoy standing at my upstairs window, looking down on it, while imagining myself standing in the silver jets of water as they cool me off while the colors appeal to my sense of harmony. As I said, it's cool ... in more ways than one!

To each his own, but I think you'll enjoy it too.

My sister said that my neice, who's 2 years old, loved it! She's only used it a few times so far with no problems. I know it will be a family favorite throughout the summmer.
