Recirculating Water Table
Forget the makeshift setups—this water table comes with a built-in pump. It even features a car racetrack around the edge and comes with fun accessories. “You fill it once and let it go,” Melody said, making it a low-maintenance, high-fun option.
Color-Changing Cars & Pool Mermaids
Simple toys can be the most fun. “They change color… warm water transforms the color,” Melody explained about the race cars.
For pool play, Banzai Mermaids don’t have any holes, so they don’t mold. They’re are perfect for both water tables and bath time.
Dinosaur Water Table & Robo Axolotl
This themed table combines kinetic sand and water for a unique sensory experience. “It comes with a cover, so you can do some sensory and water play at the same time,” Melody said.
A swimming axolotl that activates in water is a fun toy to play with in this table—“My kids are obsessed,” she said.
Twister Splash
Take the classic game of Twister outdoors with a splashy upgrade. “You hook a hose up to it… the original Twister game just outside with water,” Melody explained. It’s a hilarious, active way to cool off and play.
Bubble Blaster + Squirt Gun Combo
These award-winning toys combine water and bubbles in one. They even come with completely washable colored bubbles.
Throwpedo
This underhand throwing toy soars through the air and is “just a fun one to throw,” Melody said. It’s simple, satisfying, and makes a great Father’s Day gift.
Chalk Bombs
“You throw ’em down, you make like a big chalk pop,” Melody explained. They’re soft, safe, and washable—perfect for backyard fun.
Giant Hungry Hippos
This oversized version of the classic game is a hit. It’s a great way to bring the whole family together for some friendly competition.
