With Toy Story 4 set to be released soon, fans of the film (old and new) will love this inflatable Toy Story boat. It’s the perfect summer toy for toddlers that are lucky enough to be heading off on holiday.

Hot summer days in the garden were meant for water bombs and fun games! Water bombs can provide endless fun for the whole family, not just the kids! There are loads of fun games you can play with water balloons, but we guarantee your toddlers will love water balloon toss. Get all family members together in a circle and toss the balloon around. Whoever drops it first loses - but they do get to cool off!


If your little ones prefer a little more adventure, we’ve got a super water gun and water blaster for the ultimate family water fight! Or, if they’re a keen swimmer, they’ll love our dive rings, light up dive fish and splash dive sticks.
