Cool Toys for the Pool

Are the grandkids coming over for a swim? Check out these pool toys they'll love.

Our reviews

Patschnass Water Toys

Toddlers and preschoolers can use this floaty and bright play set in the water, at poolside, or on the sand. The spongy Patschnass Water Toys soak up water — and shoot it right out as soon as they're squeezed. The bucket holds water and functions as a filling station for the toys, as a target, or as a floating basket to catch them when thrown.

Age: 1+
Retail Price: $26

Rainbow Reef Puffer Fish

Turn your backyard pool into a tropical snorkeling excursion, even if you live in New Jersey. The Rainbow Reef Puffer Fish is a battery-powered, motorized pool toy that doesn't do much except swim around and look cute, which is plenty for kids ages 5 to 7.

Age: 5+
Retail Price: $17

Spring Jam Basketball

This duo — an inflatable, floating hoop and ball — lets your grandchildren play a game of basketball, horse, or any other game they can come up with in the pool. Our tester family created its own game: One swam holding the hoop, making it a moving target when the other kids tried to dunk a shot with the ball. A must-have for pool partiers ages 5 to 16.

Tony Hawk HuckJam Subskate Underwater Skateboard

The seminal pavement-sport goes underwater with this wheel-free "skateboard." The Tony Hawk HuckJam Subskate Underwater Skateboard is a lightweight floatable that your grandkids maneuver underwater when they step on it and take it for a ride. Creative skaters can master their own underwater tricks, and its simple design lets everyone else invent their own fun with it.

Coop Water Polo Set

With this three-piece set, your family can relive the pool sports scene in Meet The Parents, minus the intensity and broken noses. The Coop Water Polo Set features two sturdy and foldable goals to sit at the edges of the pool, and one ball for tossing, throwing, or spiking into the nets.
