DIY back garden sprinkler: A mini water park in 3 EASY steps

Sophie White

Yesterday’s bubble snakes where such a hit, so today we’re bringing you another easy and fun backyard activity to share with your littlies on a glorious Summer afternoon. Make the garden into a mini water park in just three simple steps.

This DIY sprinkler is perfect if you can’t face the paddling pool fill-up. In just three steps, you’ve got hours (or at least a few minutes) of amusement for the kids while you can lay back and enjoy the sun (or more likely get on with doing the dishes, making snacks and generally just being their little slave!).

DIY Sprinkler

What you need

Sturdy Plastic Bottle

Duct Tape

Drill or screw driver

Garden Hose

Here’s how to make one

1. Attach the garden hose to the bottle with the duct tape.

2. Drill a number of holes in the top and sides of the bottle depending on what direction you want the water to shoot. If you don’t have a drill try making the holes with a screw driver.

3. Turn on the tap and enjoy.
