What's more fun than hurling yourself like a bowling ball down a soaking wet tarp in the backyard?!
Just pray there aren't any rocks between that thin sheet of plastic and the ground ... otherwise, you'll be cryin' for mama in no time! Ah, childhood.
But before you go waxing nostalgic about the glory days ... you should know, slip 'n slides never went anywhere.
In fact, you can recreate those summer days of heaven (and lawn burn) right now on Amazon with these slippery options ... and all of them on a budget!
If you thought the younger generations have it easier ... wait'll you see this!
Gone are the days, as wistfully recalled above, of lawn burn and hitting hard rocks like speed bumps with your bare belly.
Upgrade Your Kitchen Game, Cop a Non-Stick Cookware Set!
A new design feature that's so simple it seems stupid has been added to all of these new fangled slip ‘n slides … body boards!
Strap yourself onto one of these bad boys and you can hurtle down that plastic tarp without fear of coming out the other side all scraped up.
See these three great options below … all available on Amazon!
22.5ft Water Slide w/ 2 Bodyboards & Built In Sprinkler
The 22.5ft JOYIN Water Slide comes with two bodyboards and a built in waterworks system ... including another nifty little safety feature: bumpers so you don't go careening into anything painful like a lawn sprinkler, ouch!
Slide into summer with this slick number for under 30 bucks!
Heavy Duty Inflatable Lawn Water Slide
The AnanBros slide also features two bodyboards, a built in sprinkler, and measures 20X6 feet.
If you -- we're not judging -- or your kid are shark fans then you'll really enjoy this one as it features a big ol' hungry Great White at the finish line.
Another thing, this toothy number comes with not only a bumper at the end of the slide but guardrails all the way down ... making it extra safe for your Generation Alpha brood.
This whale of a waterslide comes in just under forty bucks!
32' XXL Extra Long Slip Splash and Slide
This one's a big boy -- the Jambo Slip Splash and Slide measures at 32 feet and features a big cushioned crash pad.
Oversized body boards also come with it, of course, and built in sprinklers.
And all for just over fifty-five bucks on Amazon!
