It’s summer and the sun is blazing! But what if you don’t have a pool? No worries—there are tons of fun ways to cool off without one.

First, there’s the mighty garden hose! You can run through it, dance in it, or make a sprinkler tunnel with pool noodles and tape. Invite your friends for a backyard water party! Just grab buckets, sponges, and balloons for the ultimate water battle.

Want something calmer? Fill a tub or big bucket with cold water and splash your feet. Add toy boats or water-safe dolls for extra fun. You can even have a “car wash” for your toy trucks and bikes!

Feeling crafty? Make your own ice cube painting! Just freeze colored water in ice cube trays and slide them across paper. It’s art that melts!

And don’t forget about indoor cool-downs. Make fruity popsicles in your freezer or build a blanket fort with a fan blowing through—hello, chill hideout!

No pool? No problem! All it takes is water, sunshine, and a big imagination. Summer is about staying cool and having fun—wherever you are!
