My five-year-old daughter Ally isn’t like most kids. She doesn’t like to just run through the sprinkler and get soaking wet and sprayed with water from every angle.

She’s pretty timid around water. She doesn’t like to get her face wet at all and she doesn’t enjoy any surprise splashes of water.

So when I went looking for a sprinkler for her to play in, I was disappointed to see that most children’s sprinkler toys today spin or flail around, spraying water unpredictably in any direction.

But my prayers were answered when I finally found the Melissa & Doug Sunny Patch Blossom Bright Sprinkler. This sprinkler just sprays a nice simple fountain of water and nothing more. And since we can adjust the height of the water, Ally now happily jumps through a fountain that hits at about chest height.

Not only is this the perfect sprinkler for a more timid child like mine, but it’s also adorable, soft and durable. The sprinkler looks like a collection of pink flowers. The flowers are soft though, which is great when Ally accidentally steps right on the sprinkler.

I would highly recommend this sprinkler!
