Aqua Light Swim Mask

Flip the little blue switch at the top of this cool swim mask and you'll be able to see underwater in the dark, because this mask has built-in headlights! Imagine two tiny waterproof flashlights mounted on the top of a swim mask, and you'd have the Aqua Light Swim Mask. It's made of hard yellow plastic with blue trim, it has a standard black nose cover and an adjustable strap to fit junior swimmers ages 6 to 10. The lights are powered by four AAA batteries (not included) to be contained in a horizontal compartment on top of the mask. The lights in the center require two tiny light bulbs, which are included. These components are kept waterproof through the use of O-ring seals. The Aqua Light Mask heightens underwater visibility, and is a cool pool tool for swimming at night. --Marcie Bovetz

DO NOT BUY THIS GAMEThis is a horrible game, I mean it is just down right stupid. The fish are a real pain to catch and the line always snaps on the weakest fish when you are fishing. On top of that the game has the WORST music I have ever heard. The controls are odd and the graphics STINK. The worst part is trying to pick out the right bait to use. The are over 30 kind of bait and only one kind works for each fish. So the whole time you are trying to pick the right bait when the timer is going down. To get new levels you need to beat challenges which are impossible. You get WAY to little time catch a lot of really rare fish. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY BUY A BETTER GAME. !GOOD TIMES!
ok saltwater only gameBad graphics, great sound, nice underwater graphics, good sound, mind-boggling variety. An OK SALTWATER FISHING game (no Largemouth here but 1000 + pound Marlins are around!).Bottom-line_ an ok choice to add to your fishing collection f ya like big/saltwater fish.
Instant loveThis is an exalent fishing game. I "caught" on really fast. A tip for the first timers, look for the yellow arrows and press them with the d-pad when reeling the fish in. If you are can't figure out how to set the hook, check the fish info (It also tells you where to find them, with temp and depth. That is also shown on your radar.). Anyways this is an suberb fishing games for game freaks (like me) or real fisherman (also like me).
Dora the Explorer Sprinkler

Working great for my home daycare!I was given this sprinkler by one of my daycare parents. So far it has worked great and the kids love it (ages 2-9)! I have had the water on low or high pressure and it works great with either. With lower pressure Dora doesn't turn as fast and the water doesn't go as high. With higher water pressure Dora spins really fast and the water shoots further. I agree with another review that the water droplets are always nice and never hurt like some other sprinklers.
What I like best is how it doesn't seem to spray alot of needless water (water is expensive here). Some sprinklers seem to spray water all over the place but it takes forever for the kids to get wet. This sprinkler doesn't use a ton of water, and what it uses is in a great circular pattern so they can get really wet if they want to.
I haven't had the sprinkler tip over at all. I just have to make sure the hose isn't pulling on it and making it lean.
I gave the sprinkler 4 stars under durability because I haven't had it long enough to really know how it will endure a daycare. But so far it's doing great!

Not good for high water pressureThis sprinkler is only good if you turn on the water just a little bit. Anything more than that it starts to move around and within second tips over. If you have a child that isn't to water friendly than the problem is, if you turn on the water just a little bit Dora won't rotate. I do have one good thing to say, the water no matter what level it's on has gentle droplets unlike others that can hurt childrens delicate skin!

Great Bargain!This set is at a very very low price and buying the items seperately thru the YMCA dealers is much higher that even the list price of this set! Belts alone cost over twenty dollars for the exact same purpose! The set comes with the swim belt (with extra webbing/buckle), a pair of small floating barbells, a pair of water resistance gloves, one laminated exercise sheet, one book filled with water exercise programs! I am planning to use my set all summer then use the belt back at the Y in the fall!
The Original Water T-Ball

Time for batting practice. Get some good hits in--and get soaking wet at the same time--with the Water T-Ball set from Ohio Art. Attach the unit to your garden hose (facing away from windows), and tap one of the three plastic T-Balls into the water stream. Up it comes and it sits waiting for you to take a strike, at just the right height (after a minute's adjustment). Practice batting, catching, throwing, and all the other skills of our national pastime while getting wetter and wetter on an outdoor play day. The sturdy bat and sprayer should last quite a few seasons. Even after you've graduated to Little League, you might still want to play in the spray. --Rob Lightner

OKThis is a great idea. The picture is missleading in that the water has to be a lot higher to get the ball up that high. Also, not only does the unit have to be LEVEL, but the wind has to not blow too much or the ball won't stay in the stream.
They should really put a level detector on the unit as well as some adjustable feet to help on hill areas. Older kids can have fun hitting the ball as it flies up though.

didn't work; poor constructionIt just doesn't work. The angle of the little openings for the water to spray up are going on an angle, causing the water to squirt out at an angle instead of straight up into the air. This makes the ball shoot up only about a foot, and then immediately out of the water flow and then it falls to the ground immediately. Our unit did not work as illustrated, meaning that even when the water pressure was high and spraying up high (10 feet), the mis-aim of the jet openings caused it to go off to an angle and not straight up, after only raising less than one foot up (too low to swing at yet).
A second problem was that there is a foot pedal to step on to release the ball. I found that this only worked about 1 in 5 times. Repeated stepping on the pedal and watching to see if the ball released was distracting and frustrating. I feel that the ball release pedal should work on every single attempt.
I love the concept. My kids loved trying to use it and they loved the idea of it. I am disappointed.
Great Fun for my 3 yr oldMy 3 yr. old son and his friends love this toy. He has fun batting and getting wet, and my grass gets watered as well! Once I set it up and adjust the water pressure, my son can do the rest. It's great fun when he's alone or with his friends.
One complaint that I read was that it had to be on a perfectly flat surface to work properly (or the ball falls to the ground). All you have to do is find a stick or rock to place under the low side and it works perfectly. My yard is not flat and I've had no trouble adjusting it in this manner.
I'm not sure how durable it is. I've found that if the ball is too low, the tube gets hit alot and has to be re-adjusted. One corner of the plastic tube has broken off, but it doesn't affect the operation at all. I hope it at least lasts the summer.
I'm looking forward to using it alot this summer to entertain my son and keep him cool.

This is just a squirt gun you connect to your hose.My kids ages 8,7, and 4 only had fun squirting each other with this toy. The game was never played. My son got it at a birthday party and it was a total waste.
BIG HIT AT A 5-YEAR OLD'S BIRTHDAY PARTY!I just bought this for my 5-year old neighbor's birthday gift. All the kids at the party yelled "COOL!" and the fun began. Great water fun for kids of all ages, both boys and girls!
A REAL BLAST!!This is a game that is fun for grand-children and grand-parents. Parents will love this game because it gives the grand-parents some interaction with their grand-kids in a wholesome way. Kids will be riveted to this game because it is amusing, competitive, and takes skill. Grand-parents will love it too for the same reasons. (Parents will also love it because it gives them some free time.) The price is right too.
Spider-Man Web Spinnin' Sprinkler

Spidey doesn't stand up to this job!This COULD be a great toy, and it COULD be a very durable one to last for a couple of years, however, the design of the base is just bad. Once the hose is turned on, it won't stand up.... unless the sprinkler is on a flat surface like a driveway. Now, where would a kid rather play on, a driveway or cushy grass? I wouldn't recommend this -- it was frustrating for the kids.
It's A Sprinkler!To "guest" from Pittsburgh...it's a sprinkler, idiot! It sprays water around, what did you expect it to do???
Happy TodlerThis water toy is ideal for toddlers. My two year son, loves this. Spider-man spins around ,the stream of water is not too powerful for little ones and can be adjusted by increasing the flow of water to reach 10 feet around. Lots of fun for the price.

HOW THIS GAME IS LIKEThe thing that made me buy this game is the price you pay for it.
My freinds thought it was awsome I beat it in like 5 miniutes.My point is dont buy this game its not at all like tony hawks pro skater 1or2.The computer tells you what to do and it dishes out the moves for you its like that sorry sky diving game.Lke I said dont buy this game.

Its Wakeboarding, but i dont know if it was worth itAlright, to break it down, i am an avid wakeboarder, compete, i live it, breath it, all that stuff. when i heard about a wakeboading video game, i was stoked. i ordered it right away. then, this came in the mail, i popped it in, and in about 10 minutes, took it out. it is cool how realistic the tricks are, but there is no point to the game, it takes about 10 minutes to beat it. if i was on the team that created this game, i would nix the idea of making a Burstrick W-Boarding 2, because that would just be digging a deeper hole. If i could do it again, i would have waited for big air to come out for pc, but, oh well, dont buy this game
get what u pay forWhen I saw this in the store I couldn't resist. Trust me, this game is not as cool as it looks on the back of the cd case but for the price, like i said I couldn't resist. I was as anxious as a nun in a cucumber patch to see if the graphics were really as good as they looked on the case. Yes and no. The graphics would be great if it wasn't for this crappy frame rate. At first I thought I would hate this game but then 2 thing factored in. 1. It's actually kinda fun even though the trick system is not controlled by the player but the computer. and 2. u get what u paid for. BTW, I really think the music is great in this game. If your into fast action arcade games like blitz, tony hawk, CTR, and coolboaders 3, u might wanna pick this game up just for the price alone...

Aqua Blast VolleyballI'm a 12 year old boy and this is what I think about this toy. It is a lot of fun to play with. You can play limbo or volleyball. It is very complicated to put together though. On the directions it only shows a picture of what to do. There isn't any words. My mom didn't even use the directions because she thought it was easier to figure it out on her own.

waste of time and moneythis is an extremly badly made toy it took my mom dad and i 1 hole hour to set it up and when we finaly got it set up the whater spraed streat in to the ground . the ball in the picture is a pitiful size thing only slightly biger than a base ball and poped within a mater of minets the frame is also very wobly and tiped ove newmerious times. the only reason that i gave it a 2 in the fun stares is that we got so frustrated puting this thing up my hole family ended up geting in to a huge water fight so i gess in that respect it was responsible for secondery fun.DONT WAST YOUR MONEY U WOULD HAVE ALOT MORE FUN JUST GETING OUT A SPRINGKALER.

This toy bitesPlease do not by this toy. It is much smaller than it appears on the box. And, it is not sturdy. The water barely sprays out of the bar as pictured.

similar productI bought the Care Bear's version of this sprinkler as a gift for my niece and it is pretty much the same. The hose won't attach properly and basically broke before she even had a chance to use it. Target needs to pay a little more attention to it's quality of products.
Who lives in a pinapple under the sea?We're getting ready for my son's 4th Birthday Party. When he saw this sprinkler in the store, he fell in love with it. Right then we knew, this year's party theme is Spongebob.
When we got home and saw the other reviews, we figured we better test it out before the day of the party "just in case". We screwed on the hose, turned on the water, and it worked just fine. Maybe there's enough variety in hoses to cause isolated problems, but not in our case. Seeing the wiggling tentacles and squirting water brought a smile to our faces, and we haven't even used it yet (too chilly today)... Can't wait until we get a chance to try it out.
We're giving it four stars because we figure we haven't technically tested it over a longer period of time.
sponge loverThe kids were so excited to get a spongebob sprinkler! We had to try to use it as soon as we got home. After 7 attempts to attach our garden hose I had to tell them to wait until dad got home and even then he couldn't get it to hook up. We returned spongebob and the kids were really disappointed!
and the gogals were great for about 2 houres then the hole thing was useless wile they did work thought what i saw under the water was amasing but i would recomend a basick speedo pare they show you just as much and last for years (depending on the amount of use).
