Water Guns

Water guns are a prize-table item rather than a pocket handout, and they earn their place at summer camps, pool parties, fire department open days, and municipal events. Jornik makes six and ten-inch pistols, a twelve-inch pumper, and a multi-colour water tanker, from about a dollar and a third.

The body takes a pad print on the flat side. They tend to be bought in smaller quantities than beach balls but get used all summer, which is the trade-off. Round out an outdoor kit with beach balls, inflatables, or sand toys.
