Six tips to enjoy the mini heatwave without splashing the cash | The Sun

WHETHER you’re dipping your toe into paddling season or plopping straight in, there’s a pool for all.

With the recent mini heatwave, there’s no better way to dive into summer, but make sure you don’t expose the family to too much sun.

Check out these great buys and you won’t need to splash too much cash . . .

STAY IN THE SHADOWS: If you want to protect young skin from the sun, then the Bestway canopy paddling pool, £37 from B&Q, is a cool choice. For little ones, the Bestway frog or ladybird shaded pool is down from £19.99 to £12.99 at very.co.uk.
