Using the Bestway Space Blast Sprinkler is a breeze. First, inflate the rocket - shaped sprinkler. Then, attach the water sprayer to your garden hose. Push the 3 included ground stakes into the ground around the sprinkler to keep it stable. Let your kids turn the dial on the MultiSpray to select from 6 different water patterns and have a great time splashing. When you're done using it, disconnect the hose and deflate the sprinkler. Store it in a cool, dry place away from sharp objects to avoid punctures. Keep it clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth occasionally. Remember, this sprinkler is for children aged 2 and up, so always supervise your kids when they're using it.
