Traditionally, a backyard pool of a certain size is a big investment. But, these days, it doesn’t have to be. This 260-gallon inflatable pool for kids six and older is sizable (10 feet long and six feet wide) and interesting enough to keep kids happy (it has two chambers separated by a swim — or walk — through bridge as well as two cushioned seats). Nice touch: the top of the border is white to resist heat and make sure kids don’t burn their hands — and parents don’t burn their asses.
