The AquaPlay mole turns your lawn into a water playground on a hot summer day: connect it to a garden hose and the mole's yellow hat shoots up into the air.

This water sprinkler for kids is a simple but hugely fun outdoor toy. When you turn on the water, the mole's hat lifts off like a rocket and sprays refreshing jets up to 4 metres around. The nozzle is adjustable, so the spray can be gentle for toddlers or stronger for older children. The base is made of four parts and stands firmly on the grass, and the standard hose connector with a seal lets you set it up in minutes. Kids run, jump and try to catch the water – movement and fun at the same time.

What your child develops

• Motor coordination. Your child runs, jumps and dodges the spray.
• The senses. The feel of water and sparkling drops stimulate touch and sight.
• Cooperation. Playing with siblings or friends makes it even more fun.
• Outdoor activity. The toy encourages spending hot days in the fresh air.

How to play

Place the mole on the lawn, connect the hose and turn on the water slowly. Start with a gentle spray so little ones are not startled.

Invent games: who can run through the spray and stay dry, who catches the most drops, or who spots first when the hat lifts off.

A great gift

The water mole is a great summer gift for children aged 2 and up and for families with a garden or summer house.
