£40 Slip Slide brings 'hours of fun' this summer and gets kids away from screens
'The children absolutely loved this!! They spent hours on it, really used up some energy too!'
With the summer holidays fast approaching, many parents may be looking for ways to get their kids outside to enjoy the warm weather and step away from their digital devices for a couple of hours.
One fun item to buy that is sure to get everyone outdoors having fun is a slip and slide. Not only will it be sure to provide a barrel of laughs, it will also keep your children cool during the upcoming heatwave that is set to sweep the country.
Amazon is currently selling the JOYIN 685cm Slip Slide that comes with two bodyboards for £39.50. Currently one of the retailer's top choices, the slide boasts over 5,000 ratings and has been bought by over 1,000 shoppers in the last month.
This 685cm slip and slide comes with two lanes which bring an added element of fun for kids as they race down the track on their inflatable bodyboards. Along with a built-in sprinkler down the middle of the lanes, the slide also comes with six ground stakes to make sure the mat stays in place at all times.
The slide also has the added bonus of being easy to set up. All shoppers need to do is carefully unroll the slide, secure the bumper at the end and use the spikes to hold the slide in place. After the slide has been made wet and connected to water, an afternoon of fun is ready to begin.
It is recommended that the water flow rate of the external faucet should be around 16L/Min in to order to achieve the best water spray effect. With bright vibrant colours, you kids will be racing out the door the second they see the slide being set up.

Alternatively, Amazon is also selling the Sloosh Huge Water Slide with two inflatable boards for £43.99. With dimensions of 30ft by 6ft, this water slide is easy to set up and is said to provide 'maximum wetness and maximum wheee!'
Over on Debenhams, the retailer is also selling the Bestway H2O GO! 16ft Slip 'N' Slide for £24.99. Created with a Ultra Slick PVC, this slide will provide kids with more slip and less grip which will let them go faster as they race to the bottom.
Back to the JOYIN Slip Slide, many Amazon shoppers have left rave reviews about how much joy this slide brought to their kids last summer and how it helped pull them away from their screens for a wee while.
One happy shopper said: "The children absolutely loved this!! They spent hours on it, really used up some energy too! Gave them a lot of fun and joy. Definitely recommend!"
With another adding on: "This product was fantastic in the summer. Hours of wet fun, the water comes up through the little holes in the middle part like a sprinkler, comes with two inflatable small body board type things to hold on to whilst sliding down.
"We used it with slime also absolutely fantastic fun, very durable. Comes with ground pegs also to keep it in place, would recommend for some cheap summer fun."
However, one shopper wasn't completely happy with the sprinklers, writing: "Great outdoor fun for the kids. Sprinklers don't come from either side and the middle. Only from the middle and don't come up as high as the advert."
With another shopper noting: "Great delivery my two sons nine and 12 loved this a played on the slide for two hours. The board popped after using them twice. But the side is great. Just get some floats. Happy boys in the sun!"
Despite this, a five-star reviewer said: "This was well worth the money. Wish I'd spent the extra fiver and got the triple lane! Kids aged eight, 10 and 12 love it. Good quality, easy to set up. And mumma can sit in peace now while kids are entertained without looking at a screen. Thank you Amazon!!"
While another commented: "This slide is great quality and was easy to set up. The pegs provided keep it secure to the ground so you don't have to re-adjust when using. Our family had lots of fun using this and think it's great value for money."
