splash pool

Kids' water area

A splash pool is a shallow pool designed for wading and cooling off rather than swimming.

Children play in splash pools at parks and playgrounds, where water jets or fountains spray upward from the ground.

The term also applies to small backyard pools for toddlers: We set up a splash pool in the yard for the kids.
