Once you’ve dusted it off and checked that there are no pesky holes and it’s free of creepy crawlies, it’s time to blow it up.

It seems like every year we forget how long it takes to blow up toddler pools and how much effort it all takes.
Luckily, this smart mom revealed her clever trick that allows her to blow up her impatient son’s pool in just two minutes.
The mother, who goes online via @capricesmum, said she uses a normal hairdryer to blow up the paddling pool in her garden for her three-year-old.
In the clip, she said, “Does anyone else use a hair dryer on the cool setting to blow up their pool?
“I’ve been doing this for years and it’s a complete game changer.
“On hot days, my son is so impatient to get in the pool and that’s why I can do it so quickly.
“This paddling pool takes 90 seconds to inflate, make sure there is no water in it as it could be dangerous.”
The smart mom showed how quickly the main pool was blown up and other parents were amazed by the hack.
One said: “This is so smart!”
A second wrote, “Omg this woman is unlocked from the matrix, gotta try this now!”
Others were annoyed that they hadn’t come up with the trick sooner: “I could have done mine so much faster.”
