paddling pool
Backyard water dish
A paddling pool is a shallow pool, typically inflatable or plastic, designed for small children to splash and play in.
The term is primarily British; Americans generally say kiddie pool or wading pool.
We set up the paddling pool in the backyard to keep the kids cool.
The name comes from the verb paddle, meaning to wade or splash in shallow water.
