Pool floats are for adults. There, I said it. Your blow up pool chair, ring, or flamingo is Not. For. Kids.
What your pool float is for is lazing around with some snacks and a few drinks while you responsibly soak up the sun and float around your pool like a giant, human-shaped pinball.
Not only will you have a great time laying in a pool float, it’s bound to make your mates jealous. I mean, who doesn’t want a pool float that looks like a giant jar of Vegemite?
