Little Tikes Slide and Splash Ball Pit

I have never been disappointed with Little Tykes. They make very nice/fun kids toys. I got this slide and ball pit for my two boys so they have something fun to do while being stuck inside and they love it. It is very easy to blow up which you need to have a pump since this one does not come with one. It comes with 40 different colored air filled balls. This ball pit keeps your little ones busy for hours.

I received the Little Tikes Slide & Splash Ball Pit in exchange for a fair and Impartial review. FIRST decide where you'll place it. I chose my rather large carpeted office. The outside of the box doesn't mention you have to ADD WATER. It's not much but still I think it warrants a heads up. The slide has a 2 indwelling pockets, 1 on each side. I used a basic funnel and tap water. The purpose of the water is to help stabilize the unit. You'll also need an air pump. I had to buy one but it was basic and cost less than $15. It took 2 adults about 40 minutes to fill with water then inflate, AND in that order. I've had this Little Tike Slide and Splash for a week. Before I let my little ones on I explained the rules: 1 person at a time, must stay in the middle of the slide and most importantly they could not use it unless I was in the room, etc, etc. After reading the enclosed info and watching your child on the slide a couple of times, you'll determine what's best. The box states ages 3-8. I had my 2 year old, 3 year old, and 6 year old try it out. The 2 year old did just as well as the 3 year old just a little slower. the 6 year old is WAY to BIG. He tried it once and replied, "No fair!" He's the size of an average 1st grader. The younger ones wake up and run straight for it. And it's one of the last things they do before bed! They play on it many times throughout the day. I'd say a total of 3+ hrs a day. They have a better understanding of following rules and consciences. Waiting their turn has also been a valuable lesson! The small ball pit at the base of the slide was used for their 1 year old cousin as you'll see in the picture. The slide comes with 40 balls to give you an idea really. I've added at least 70 more. The Little Tikes brand has been trusted and used in our family for Many Years. This Slide and Splash Ball Pit has a 100% approval by this parent AND the children!
