In this high tech world, sometimes we forget how much summertime fun a child can have with something simple. For example, an everyday sprinkler can offer loads of enjoyment for a youth. In that sense, imagine how much fun a child can have when that sprinkler is turned into something that blows like a volcano! Such is the kind of fun that the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI can deliver.
Yes, that’s right: There are tons of high priced products available for purchase this summer that children may enjoy. From pool toys to bicycles to water slides, there’s a little something for everybody. That said, anyone with little children knows that oftentimes the least expensive things are the ones they gravitate to. We’ve all seen it happen before: You get that summertime toy priced over 300 dollars only to watch that three year old of yours find an empty soda bottle and kick it around gleefully instead.
And this, of course, leaves you wondering why you chose to buy that 300 plus dollar item in the first place.
Well, the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI may not cost as little as an empty soda bottle. Still, priced at only $17.99 at Amazon.com, it represents large scale summertime fun at a small scale price for children ages three and up.

What the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI does?
The Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI attaches to a simple water hose; in other words, it couldn’t be easier to get going. As soon as you attach it, the man/ volcano is ready to go.
Simply put, the dual jets act to literally make the volcano blow water in intervals. Thus, when the eyes of the man/ volcano open you better watch out because a stream of water is about to come flying out. In short, children- especially younger ones- will really enjoy the anticipatory excitement of waiting for the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI to blow.
Young children may also enjoy putting light objects (a wiffle ball, for example) on the volcano and watching as the stream of water sends it flying in the air. That said, they may also want to sit on the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI. This would be a mistake as it is certainly possible to break or damage it (it was not built to withstand such play). So, this is something to watch out for. In addition, when storing do not put in under heavy objects (again, it’s not the sturdiest thing ever).
That said, children as young as three and as old as 10 really can have a ball with it. It’s great for those summertime parties with kids. Just set it up and watch them go.
And again, it’s cheap. So you won’t break the bank buying it.

In sum.
So when you’re thinking about those children of yours this summer, you might want to consider an alternative kind of sprinkler. And if you do decide to go in that direction, the Super Soaker MT TIKI SOKI may just be what the doctor ordered. Especially if that doctor wants his or her kids to have less expensive summertime fun and is willing to supervise to make sure that the play around the man/ volcano doesn’t get too rough.
