Bestway H2OGO! Turbo Splash Inflatable Mega Bouncy Castle Water Park| £599.99 at Amazon
This bouncy castle water park does come with a huge price tag, but if you're not going on hols this year... why not spend your budget on this? It'll keep the kids quiet for weeks. It IS available more cheaply at B&Q (an amazing £275), but it's constantly sold out at the moment... we are keeping an eye on it. It come with a curved slide; a heavy duty blower that inflates the water park in less than two minutes; a large play pool area and climbing wall with three handles and five foot-steps; a water gun; and a dumping bucket that drops water randomly for a soaked surprise that keeps the slide sloppy.
