Our Skippies after a fun weekend in the ocean, still with some sand on them!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My girls picked out a pool toy, Skippies by Fluid, to give to Daddy for his birthday a couple weeks ago and we got to try them out on our recent trip to Charleston.\u00a0 It was a BLAST playing with these floating discs!!!!\u00a0 I have to admit I was thinking of using the Skippies mainly for time in the pool because I thought we would lose them in the ocean with the waves.\u00a0 Since we didn’t have the opportunity to use them at the pool first we decided to test them in the ocean anyway.\u00a0\u00a0 The whole family had a lot of fun playing with the “Skippies”!\u00a0 They floated really well, were bright colors which made them easy to spot in the water, and light weight so if one managed to hit you it didn’t hurt (we tested that theory, Jake even managed to hit me on the forehead one time).\u00a0 Plus they were easy to grab and throw even for the kids.<\/p>\n

Several people in the water near us stopped us to ask about them.\u00a0 I was impressed with how entertaining they were and how easy they were to use even for our girls.\u00a0 It is a great time of year to check out these neat pool toys as the summer season begins to wrap up.\u00a0 They are not expensive and can provide a lot of fun entertainment for your whole family.\u00a0 I found them on clearance at our local Sports Authority when they were closing down the store on Laurens Road.\u00a0 I am looking forward to trying them out at the pool now that we tested them successfully in the ocean!\u00a0 They come in a pack of 4 and measure 3 inch in diameter.\u00a0 You can find them at Toy Splash<\/a>!<\/p>\n
