Sweet, splashy relief

This is usually the point in the year where we start to switch gears from summertime heat to pumpkin spice cool, but it sure feels like 2023 has at least a couple of hot days left.

And if not?

Well if not, you can simultaneously breathe a sigh of relief that fall has actually arrived while also being stoked that you managed to score an awesome splash mat for just ten bucks that’ll be there when you need it next year.

This one is a generous 68” across and provides a wee little bit of water in the pool at the bottom and a whole lot of water flying through the air. It also has cool pirate designs, and we all know that pirates never go out of style.

The outside rim stays put since it fills with water and you can decide if you want the water streams to blast super high or only kind of high—totally up to you. Also it’s pretty thick material, so the whole thing is nice and durable.

Oh! And the marketing info they sent says that it’s “perfect for use outdoors” which we can only take to mean that maybe it’s somewhat okay to use indoors? Your call on that.

Did we mention it’s $9.99? Just get one already. This year or next, you won’t regret it.
