“Get Outside!” (Hasbro Can Help)

It’s a continual struggle in the summer months among my mom friends. When your babies are tiny, it’s easy to get them in the yard, breathing in all that fresh air and soaking in the sun (sunscreen applied, of course) but as they get older, screens take precidence and it becomes harder and harder to get the kids to play outside for a decent amount of time.

Kids love summer too, no doubt about it, and I remind my own that their screens will be waiting there through the winter as well. I’m not an anti-technology or anti-screen parent. How can I be when I work on multiple screens as my career (TV included)? So, I remind my kids that it’s about balance, and getting outdoors in the summer time, that balance shifts a bit and I put more emphasis on backyard, park, and holiday fun.

Backyard fun is an easy go-to because it’s inexpensive (once you purchase the items, they’re yours and can be stored over the winter), it’s safe and you can mosey in and out of the house while the kids play (wine optional), and you don’t even have to put on pants because no one is going to see you (though, a robe is suggested…) Here are some awesome summer toys below from Hasbro that bring some water-filled fun to the backyard this summer.

First, I just need to say how much I love when brands take an online game/platform/obsession and bring it to their toys and bring kids outside. I know you know of or have a kid who loves Fortnite! Check out these Nerf Fortnite Super Soakers!

PEEING PUP Game (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $24.99) It’s a puppy version of the game of “hot potato” as kids take turns passing the pup and petting its head. Then when the puppy barks 3 times, it’s time to pass him to the next person. The little pup makes cute sounds with all this attention…but watch out! He loves to be petted but he just might pee — spraying water on the person holding him, and surprising everybody! The only player not to get peed on by the pup wins. This fun interactive game is easy to play and makes a great game to play indoors or outdoors. It can be a great birthday or holiday gift, for preschoolers ages 4 and up.

  • Amazing!!! with a 6 year old, 4 year old and almost 1 year old, I wont be able to take them to many places because it will just be way to much for me especially since my oldest is autistic so we will be staying at home much of the time so I am trying to keep things entertaining and fun inside and out. This would definitely keep them busy for a bit in our backyard!

  • I would love to win these for my back yard because we live in a fairly secluded cul de sac filled with tons of kids who love to go and play outside just like I did in the 80s – most days in the summer they play outside all day, right into the evening (with breaks for meals and snacks of course). We have a little slide and play area at the bottom of the cul de sac where we also installed a big bin of outside toys to share. My kids would love to contribute these water toys to the neighbourhood toy bin so they can play with them with their friends.

  • We all love a good water fight so these toys would make it even more fun on a very hot summer day.

    Plus he loves to water my garden with his little water gun I think he could do a better job with a bigger water gun 😉
