kiddie pools

Shallow backyard basins

Kiddie pools are small, shallow pools designed for young children to splash and play in safely.

Usually made of inflatable plastic or rigid molded material, they hold just a few inches of water and sit in backyards during summer months.

The kids spent all afternoon in the kiddie pool.

Also called wading pools or paddling pools (British).
