The Step2 Splash & Scoop Bay is the anchor of a good outdoor setup for three-year-olds

Buy the Step2 Splash & Scoop Bay Water Table first and thank me later — it’s the anchor of a good outdoor setup for three-year-olds. The water table is the right height for little ones to stand and play without hunching, the accessories (scoops, cups, a little water wheel) keep them engaged way longer than you’d expect, and it’s sturdy enough to survive being left out in the elements. It’s the toy that other kids gravitate toward at playdates.
