Finding quality outdoor toys for kids that won't be a pain in the butt to store once Summer is over can be tough, which is why we love inflatable toys during the hot months. Once they're deflated, most inflatables are pretty thin, or can at least fold up to a small enough size to be thrown into a storage bin until next year (can't do that with a water table!). Not only that, but whether a water or land toy, inflatable toys are usually the most fun.
