虽然英国的夏天是不可预测的,但户外的嬉水池是其中之一最好的户外玩具你可以在你的军火库中拥有这些东西——孩子和孩子的父母都可以证明这一点。

这比带他们去海滩容易多了,比带他们去游泳池便宜多了,而且一个像样的游泳池会一直持续到他们长大。
我们已经跑腿了,所以你不用,拖网Mumsnet论坛家长的建议,畅销书名单和其他专家评论网站。
结果出来了。这里有最适合幼儿和儿童的游泳池。
1.最佳整体泳池:乍得山谷家庭游泳中心
“我推荐乍得山谷家庭游泳中心游泳池。9英尺高,950升,是6至9岁儿童的理想选择。”

这个泳池足够大,可以让多个孩子同时嬉戏,甚至可以让几个成年人并排躺着降温。它非常坚固,有特别宽的墙壁,在炎热的天气里,即使是最活泼的孩子也能站得住。
它的容量高达950升,它的深度意味着它不适合3岁以下的孩子,但对于年龄较大的孩子来说,乍得山谷将是任何花园的伟大补充。
当它装配时,这个需要13分钟充气和23分钟填充。它没有水泵,但它有快速放气阀,这使它更快地在花园划船结束后收起。
或者,如果你想在孩子们游泳时监督他们,你可以考虑Chad Valley的小型400L车型代替。
需要知道
- 年龄:6 +
- 外形尺寸:262 × 175 × 51cm
2.最佳预算划水池:Intex水晶蓝三环划水池
“绝对便宜!”

不到8英镑(比许多海滨城镇买一轮冰淇淋的价格还低!),你绝对不会错过Intex的这个游泳池。
因为它不太高,适合小孩子坐,而且它足够大,可以让一对年轻人一起泼水,还可以扔一些玩具。
这个水池没有任何铃铛或哨子,但它很容易爆炸,压扁便于存储,并完全按照它说的做。
如果你正在为你的孩子寻找一个便宜又令人愉快的地方,让他们安全的游泳,或者是一个预算合理的游泳池,这是一个理想的地方。
需要知道
- 年龄:2 +年
- 外形尺寸:114.3 × 2.5 × 25.4厘米
3.最好的家庭paddling游泳池:夏季逃脱八角形家庭游泳池
“我们前几天买了这个划水池,昨天开始使用。我刚把水放了一晚上,今天我们又用了。”

家庭花园娱乐的绝佳选择。九英尺宽,有足够的空间容纳你们所有人,但它不会占据你们的整个草坪。我们也喜欢传统的八角形。
这个巨大的游泳池需要1806升水,但是它有三个双进气室,用电动泵充气只需要15分钟。然后大约需要20分钟填充。
杯架是一个很好的补充,非常欢迎在温暖的夏天,当你想要一个凉爽的饮料接近手。
八角形座位两个成年人和三个孩子轻松-如果只是孩子更多-这是完美的泼水和放松整个夏天

这个家庭大小的游泳池有四个内置的靠背座椅,特别宽的墙壁和两个饮料架,适合3岁及以上的儿童,并为更大的儿童提供派对的想法,带有凉爽的热水浴缸氛围。
有几个成年人坐在座位上,仍然有足够的空间让孩子们在水里玩。
当要把它收起来的时候,水池的地板上有一个排水管塞,这样你就不用把整个水池倒过来了,而且它可以完全折叠起来,便于储存。

- 尺寸:229 × 229 × 66cm
价格:£45.99
5.最佳婴儿嬉水池:JoJo Maman Bébé弹出式嬉水池
“我的孩子从六个月前就爱上了嬉水池。但所有孩子在水周围都需要密切监督,并确保使用后立即清空泳池。”

适合9个月,这个弹出式浆池从JoJo Maman Bébé是理想的介绍婴儿和蹒跚学步的水。
它的大小刚好可以让你的孩子坐在里面快乐地泼水,还有足够的空间放一两艘船和一个喷壶。
它可以立即组装(任何父母都能听到音乐),它由耐用的织物制成,具有UPF 50+的保护功能,可以在特别炎热的天气里使用。兜帽可以为你的孩子遮阳。
设计简单,但效果很好。它可以在几秒钟内弹出,可以储存,不用的时候,可以折叠成一个4厘米长的便携包——当你去祖父母家或度假的时候,非常适合放在车里。
需要知道
- 年龄:9个月
- 尺寸:直径96.5厘米
6.最好的划水池为三岁:肚皮趴划水池
“我刚从非法侵入公司买了一个不错的游泳池。它的侧面很高,所以水会留在倾斜的花园或不平坦的地面上。它很便宜,到目前为止真的很好。”

冲浪者的海龟印为一个很酷的幼童划水池。它由三个环组成,充气又快又容易,所以当太阳出来时,他们可以直接跳进水里,在水下朋友的包围下享受飞溅的乐趣。
当他们完成时,这个水池可以很容易地放气和折叠,而不占用太多的空间。
它的价格比较便宜,适合三岁以上的孩子,所以如果你想给更小的孩子介绍一下划桨,你需要考虑一下。

- 年龄:3 +
- 尺寸:20 × 30cm
7.最佳多功能paddling pool: Chad Valley Sand and Water Pit
“我们买下了乍得山谷的沙坑和水坑。它本质上是两个模塑池,一个放沙子,另一个放水。它是坚硬的塑料,很容易倒空。空水池将沙坑覆盖了一整夜。它很便宜!”

把它想象成家里的迷你海滩。这个来自乍得山谷的蓝色苹果形沙坑和水坑将会是12个月以后的孩子们的最爱。
可以说是我们名单上最多功能的划水池,你可以用水、沙子或球来填满坑。它由聚丙烯制成,包装也很舒适,其中一半充当了盖子。
而且,从Argos上的2000多条评论中,它获得了接近最高分的评价。
需要知道
- 年龄:12个月+
- 外形尺寸:23.5 × 106 × 92厘米
8.最佳活动泳池:乍得谷8.5英尺活动游戏中心
“我们有来自阿尔戈斯的乍得山谷。真的很满意。”

这种划水泳池的活动得到了专家和家长们的好评,原因很明显。
这不仅仅是一个嬉水池,这是一个充气游乐场,有一个洒水花,你可以接上软管,滑梯和球池,还有一个小身影,在你的孩子的冒险中成为他们的朋友。
明亮的颜色和大胆的形状真的很吸引小孩子,有很多东西让他们接触和互动,从黏糊糊的棕榈树到滑滑梯,让球滑下来。也有很多飞溅的空间。
乍得山谷8.5英尺活动游戏中心的泳池充气只需5分钟,但可以让孩子们忙上几个小时。
需要知道
- 年龄:3 +
- 外形尺寸:259 × 146 × 76cm
9.最佳金属框架嬉水池:Intex矩形池
“我们有一个大型Intex项目。我们一年到头都不做,现在已经是第四年了。这是工厂!”
“我们有一个Intex的硬边游泳池,我们的孩子会尽可能多地去里面玩!”

Intex很受那些想要一个更大的冷却池的家长们的欢迎,不过这家制造商也生产更小的机型,包括一款创新机型有座位的划水池约£50。
它们涵盖了整个范围,从充气桨池到可折叠的结构,再到像这个特色的大型池,它拥有水力曝气™技术,以提高水的清晰度。
基本上,这是一个小型的便携式游泳池,孩子们可以在里面游泳,成年人可以在里面放松。它能比传统的圆形框架游泳池容纳更多的水,甚至在灰色衬垫内有马赛克瓷砖印刷。
这是简单的组合,虽然显然有一点比充气泳池更多,它应该准备好在30分钟内填满。它甚至附带了一个指导DVD来帮助。
需要知道
- 年龄:未指定
- 外形尺寸:300 × 300 × 75cm
10.快速膨胀的最佳paddling pool: Bestway Fast Set pool
“我女儿很喜欢。这更像是一个正常的游泳池,而不是一个戏水池。如果你想在整个夏天都有同样的水,那么你需要水处理套件。这很有趣。”
“我强烈推荐它。我们玩得很开心,两个大人、两个小孩和许多漂浮的玩具都可以轻松地坐进去。”

快速充气,Bestway快速集水池有各种尺寸-我们已经去了三分之一的六个可用的-它适合任何户外空间,或大或小。
膨胀非常快,因为你只膨胀顶部的环。然后你填满水池,水的重量和体积决定了水池的形状;当你填满池子时,池子只会上升。
如果你没有很高的水压,它可能需要一段时间来填满,但一旦满了,你可以覆盖这个游泳池,如果你愿意,整个夏天都让它留在那里,浪费更少的时间和水。(注意,排水阀不包括在内,所以如果你要定期清空游泳池,你可能想买一个)。
如果你打算把它放在露台上一段时间,担心会压扁你的草坪,它也足够坚固。
这个水池是由超强PVC制成的,这意味着你不需要担心眼泪,而且用完后也很容易折叠和收起来。
总而言之,在炎热的天气里,这是一个很棒的游泳池,可以在漫长的一天后离开,邀请朋友来喝一杯,或者让孩子们在它的深处游泳。物超所值。

11.最佳二合一划水泳池:早教中心弹性城堡宫殿
“我们买了一个ELC城堡的游泳池。这是一个相当小的游泳池,但我的孩子们认为它很棒。”
“这太好了!这是这个周末的救命稻草,真的物有所值。”

从曾经流行的ELC来了一个弹跳城堡/游泳池组合-一个优秀的二合一的选择为3到8岁的孩子,尽管它值得注意,你必须单独购买泳池大约25英镑.
游泳池有一个特殊的侧面连接到充气城堡,但每个元素也可以单独使用。
充气宫虽然不大,但足够大到在热天凉快的泼水,而且充气城堡是可用空间的两倍。
它对活跃的玩耍、身体发育和夏季派对(以及睡前让他们疲惫)都很有好处。在冬天,戏水池可以用作室内的球池,所以它非常物有所值。

12.最佳滑梯划水泳池:Intex Dinoland Play Centre

小恐龙迷们会爱上这个被棕榈树环绕的游戏中心,里面有一个可充气的翼手龙和剑龙,还有一个底部有软垫的充气滑梯。
恐龙拱连接在一根软管上,在它们滑下滑梯时轻轻地喷洒它们,但拱是单独的一块,可以移动,也可以单独在草坪上奔跑。还有一场恐龙篮球比赛和一个火山球滚轮让他们忙个不停。
实用性也很好。里面有一个排水管塞,方便排空,游泳池也有一个免费修理补丁。
它很大,适合室内使用,但你可以很容易地在室内装满塑料球,在下雨天也会成为最受欢迎的家长。

在购买划水池时要考虑的事情
近年来,嬉水池已经有了长足的发展,现在已经发展成为适合所有年龄段儿童的成熟的娱乐中心。但是在你买之前,有一些事情需要考虑。
安全
根据儿童安全专家在英国皇家事故预防学会(RoSPA),儿童在5厘米深的水中就可能溺水。
当使用嬉水池时,家长必须时刻监督孩子,并确保他们在使用后排水并收拾好池子。
你的孩子的年龄
在选择游泳池时,检查年龄是否合适是至关重要的。这不仅会决定你最终购买的游泳池的大小(你不会想买一个对你的孩子来说太小或他们很快就长大了的游泳池),而且还会决定总体安全。
有些嬉水池是专门为婴儿设计的,而有些则适合大一点的孩子。
划池大小
嬉水池是孩子们在家里玩得开心的好方法,但在投资之前,你需要考虑你实际上有多少户外空间。
这里有一系列的嬉水池,以适应各种各样的空间,无论是一个小露台还是一个广阔的花园。
戏水池衬里
对那些不想(啊哈)挥霍的人来说,预算友好的划水池是一个不错的选择,但廉价的产品往往意味着低质量的材料,更容易撕裂。
对于婴儿和蹒跚学步的孩子来说,这可能不是问题,但对于大一点的孩子可能会在水里玩得很吵,你可能需要一些更坚固的东西,在使用几次后不会散架。
你要把你的嬉水池放在哪里?
如果你把你的划水池放在草地上,那么它应该没有任何其他东西在它下面。然而,如果你打算把它放在混凝土上,那么你需要在下面放一些更软的东西,比如橡胶垫。
存储也值得考虑。不使用的时候,你会把它放在哪里呢?看看它是否可以折叠成一个紧凑的形状,便于存储。
有打气筒吗?
大多数的游泳池都没有水泵(有些有!),所以在答应孩子在崭新的游泳池里玩一个下午之前,先检查一下你已经有一个水泵了。如果你没有打气筒,他们也可以只花了5英镑.
你们的游泳池也有吗维修工具?毕竟,划水池可能会被戳穿,所以手边有工具快速修复总是很有用的。
一个嬉水池可以持续多长时间?
一个嬉水池能维持多久很大程度上取决于它的使用和储存的谨慎程度。在充气泳池里,不小心把它放在石头上或拖着它穿过混凝土(或者孩子们跳到充气的池边),很容易扎破洞。
尽管如此,只要你小心使用,确保泳池完全干燥,这样它就不会发霉,你就会期望一个划水池可以持续三年或更长时间。一些更昂贵和非充气的机型可能使用更久。
对婴儿来说,嬉水池应该有多温暖?
对于三个月以下的婴儿,建议32度,但即使是大一点的婴儿也会很快失去热量。
自己试一试水,确保它感觉温暖,不要让它们在里面停留太久。大约20分钟就够了。
准备足够多的温暖的毛巾,这样你就可以很快地把宝宝弄干并穿好衣服。
如何清空嬉水池
清空游泳池的最好方法是使用花园软管。
将软管浸入水中直到完全充满,不留下任何气泡。捏住软管的两端,以免水漏出来。
在捏的同时,将软管的一端从水中取出,带到合适的排水位置,然后松开手指,让水排出。
如何清洁划水池
一旦所有的水都排出去了,用抹布或毛巾把池子里多余的水擦干净。
使用清洁剂(这必须是至少一份漂白剂和五份水,或者醋和水的比例相等,如果你是自己做的)来清洁池边。使用刷子或扫帚可以使这更容易。
细菌和藻类会造成滑块,所以在清洁时一定要特别注意这些。
清洗完毕后,用高压软管迅速冲洗泳池。
最好的游泳池买什么?
你需要选择一个适合你孩子年龄的游泳池,不幸的是,这里没有万能的选择。
但是我们认为给有六岁以上孩子的家庭买的最好的划水池是乍得山谷家庭游泳中心.
它将持续几年,感觉真的很强劲,并很快填补。在一个炎热的夏天下午,一群学龄儿童几乎立刻就能找到乐趣。
我们是如何选择推荐信的
因为划水池的安全是第一位的,我们首先咨询了安全慈善机构和组织,了解他们在划水池中需要什么,以及在购买划水池时需要考虑什么。
然后,我们查看了哪些泳池最近赢得了其他育儿网站和平面媒体的奖项和赞誉。
我们列出了一长串这些产品的清单,将这些产品与网上的客户评论进行交叉对比,还花了一些时间在Mumsnet论坛上搜索,看看哪些产品在Mumsnet用户中引起了轰动,哪些产品反响不太好。
我们根据这些信息拟定了一个清单,然后选择了12种产品,我们认为它们可以满足每种生活方式和预算。
