Promising review: "I bought this for my 3-year-old and 5-year-old grandkids and they LOVE it. I can also get inside with them and can stand straight up (I'm 5'4"). Overall, I'm very happy with this purchase and I'm sure the kids will enjoy it for many years to come." —Happy Glamaw

3. A splash-and-surprise water game to keep smaller kids entertained and cool on hot summer days, so they can stay out and active for longer.

Promising review: "If I had known my grandchildren would laugh as much as they have in the days since I gave them this, I would have bought it so much sooner! By far the best gift I have ever given them! First thing this morning: 'BUBBLES!!!!' Definitely a good machine, easy to set up and use and so much fun!" — KatieO

6. A backyard slide and swing set that'll keep a group of kids social, occupied, and totally active for hours.

Promising review: "This was a perfect choice for our 6-year-old and 2-year-old! It looks nice, it's sturdy and my girls have absolutely enjoyed it! I thought the rock wall and slide might be too big for my youngest right now, but she can't stay off of it. Also, we got the Dome at Walmart too, months ago and it's a great addition!!" —leveld
Price: $559.00
7. A plastic toboggan for little thrill-seekers, whether it's the first snow or the first day of summer. Pair it with a hill (and a helmet) for a full day of fun.

8. A picnic table that'll get kids together to enjoy some snacks, crafts, board games, and other indoor activities easily taken outside.

9. A baseball water slide so you can combine the best of summer sports with a pool party. Get kids together for an elevated and soaking wet version of this classic game.

10. A bouncey castle for birthday parties or playdates, especially if you want yours to be the coolest house in the neighborhood.

Promising review: "My son loves it and it is built to last. Tough materials that are thick and resilient. I love it! And so does he. It says 120 lbs only but I can lay down inside it while he jumps and it's fine. Great price, as well! So satisfied! Definitely an awesome, fun buy for the kiddos." —anonymous
Price: $43.19
11. A tricycle with a detachable handle that'll get kids ready to ride a bike on their own, but also give guardians an active way to be there to support the transition.

Promising review: "I love how this trike can grow with my daughter through the years. It was a great first birthday gift for her, as she is able to ride it herself just like a big girl! Overall, this is a great first tricycle, and a great way to help your little one learn how to eventually ride it all by themself." — Becca
Price: $44.97
12. A dune racer for adrenaline-pumped backyard adventures or supervised neighborhood drives.

13. A National Geographic play sand kit that'll bring the beach to kids and gets them building, molding, and slicing their own sand masterpieces.

14. An outdoor chaise lounder for relaxed kids who prefer to watch the action, take breaks from it, or participate in the adults' discussions (we love to see it).

15. A giant animal kite, because this'll look impressive and unique in the sky. Kids can also practice their hand-eye coordination and understanding of physics while enjoying a sunny afternoon outdoors.

Promising review: "Our 3.5-year-old loves it. It flies well and has a long sturdy string. It also has a pouch that flies behind it with long streamers." — lifeat7777ft
Price: $14.60
16. A pool volleyball kit to give kids with a competitive edge hours of volleyball challenges and fun. It's a great pool party game for older kids, though we're certain all swimming ages could totally enjoy.

17. An inflatable movie screen for evenings outdoors with kids of all ages. Project a movie in any season without worrying about having to interrupt the fun because of a little precipitation.

Promising review: "Wow your family and friends by purchasing this inflatable movie screen. This thing is HUGE and the picture is crystal clear. It's pretty cool to say the very least. It was very easy to set up too. We purchased this for our daughter's birthday party and the kids and adults absolutely loved it. I think we will have lots of people asking to borrow it very soon. I would highly recommend it!" —cmlnrh

18. A cedar sandbox that'll keep small, creative kids safe at play for hours, especially with the help of a few sandbox accessories.

20. A beach ball sprinkler that'll give smaller kids their summer water fun while you get to keep it isolated to certain areas of your backyard or neighborhood (perhaps even for the benefit of your lawn).

21. A ball bouncer to encourage mobility and exploration in a super fun way. And what's more fun than a bouncy ball race (at any age, really)?

22. An inflatable water slide play place that'll be a total centerpiece for your summer kids' party. A rock-climbing middle leads to water slides on either end, so everyone's having fun at once rather than waiting for their turn.

23. A small slide to keep toddlers entertained for a while, especially when guardians are right there at the end to catch then and encourage their bravery.

24. A mini rollercoaster that'll give nervous kids an opportunity to practice their bravery and wild children a thrilling outlet. It will definitely be a hit at the park.

Promising review: "I got this roller coaster for my 18-month-old's Easter present and she and everyone else loves it! We took it to the park and set it up downhill and the kids (ages 18 months to 8 years) had a blast riding on it. A lot of people passing by commented on how fun it looks. It was a huge hit and I got my money's worth in just one day. I really wish I had this toy as a kid." —Evilboohbah
Price: $116.99
25. A Lightning McQueen racecar for a dream come true. Complete with some sunglasses and good music, your little one will feel like the coolest in on the block.

26. Or a play truck complete with a horn, LED headlights, and an MP3 player, for surprising a kid who can't be kept up with.

27. A mountain bicycle for helping kids to get around, as the texture and width of the wheels makes it ideal for maintaining control through changes in terrain.

Promising review: "My daughter absolutely loves her new bike. She received this as a birthday surprise and hasn't stopped riding it since. She's 5' tall, so this tween bike is just the right height for her long legs. It's also nice and sturdy." — Imanismom32
Price: $98.00
28. A ball pit that'll be a fun and therapeutic place to play, especially when kids have outgrown a sandbox. It's stimulating for multiple ages, easy to clean up, and perfect for a game of hide-and-seek.

29. A 14-ft trampoline for keeping kids of any age active for hours. Add in some group games or solo challenges for kids to try and you've got all-day entertainment.

30. A helicopter drone to fly solo or supervised outdoors...but grab two or more and you can make it a playful battlefield in the sky.

31. A hoverboard, because this'll challenge balance, coordination, and agility and, once mastered, could even be used as a mode of transportation around the neighborhood for older kids.

Promising review: "Wonderful in every way! I got the shark print for my 11-year-old daughter and unicorn for my 9-year-old daughter for Christmas. The Bluetooth speaker works wonderfully. The design is bright and the lights work great!" —Smithmomof4
