I would like to use this as a ball pit with a slide. I have 200 balls and want to know if my son would be able to slide into it with enough room?

Yes. That's the same set up we have. But the top ring of our pool/pit doesn't hold air. And the bottom has zero padding so you'll want to put it on a rug or carpeting.

He could if you have the type of slide that can straddle the edge of the pool...with the ladder outside and slide inside. Otherwise, I don't think there would be enough room. Good idea though!

It really depends...if your son is a toddler like mine then I would say yes...I added a small slide to mine and my son had no problem sliding down it...oh and I added a blanket under the pool for soft landing...I think your idea would work...

Absolutely. Bought this for my 2-year old twins as a ball pit. Mine is under inflated so that the twins can get in and out on their own. Also another user is correct, you need a lot of balls. I have 1200 5.5 ml balls in my ball pit.

I would haout there and blow it up, but I will say it was perfect for my 2 year old, and my husband and I would even go in it with him from time to time. He is 3 now and I am sure he will still have a blast in it. Sorry I don't have the dimensions right now, but if your son is around 2 to 4 years old, I think he will like it. we would blow it up and just empty the water and put in the shed blown up, so we would not have to keep blowing it up throughout the summer.

We had 500-600. It was a good amount for 2 kids. We first threw in 100 and it looked like there were 20 balls in it.

I think 10 kids at a time would be a bit much, but there is a spray arm by the slide that they can play in while waiting to use the slide. The pool area does wrap around 1/2 of it. I hope this helps!

It would mainly depend on his weight. Not sure the specs(can google it). It's larger than the average playpen's, so good to keep them busy. All depends on the child & their willingness to stay in there;)

I use my for a ball pit that has 1,800 balls in it and I have had four little ones in there playing with plenty of room. But swimming maybe a whole different story.

I would say about another year. I keep ours inside and its stable on the ground but outside it was wobbly and my daughter is only 20 pounds so I would just keep that in mind. Its smaller than it looks in the picture. If youre son is a fast grower then I suggest you go with a larger slide.

When I purchased this my son was only a little over 1y/o. He's 2 now and still plays with it. Not daily but off and on, and when other kids come over they all like the ball pit. The only issue is that just recently at his birthday party some of the bigger kids were in it and the ballpit has a huge tear now so the balls are spilling out. So we got about 1yr of use out of it. Not sure if we can save the ball pit, so may end up just getting rid of it. Overall, it's a nice item for ages 2-5 yrs due to its size.

My husband (not a big man, about 5'6 130 lbs) plus a 25 lb, and two 40 lb kids play in it at the same time. My husband stays in the ball pit area and the kids just play in both areas - they have a blast!

I would buy at least 200 more. The playhut its self is awesome but its a sad ball pit!

In my opinion it's not very big - I thought it would be bigger than it is. But my 2&4 year olds can jump in there together Just fine. I think you could add one more small kid in there at the same time too. Honestly my kids don't just jump a lot though. They play on the slide a lot.

We just have 200 in ours and it can def hold another 200 to 300 balls but my son knocks it over and throws them everywhere that we didn't get more. He thinks it's fun but it's def. Not fun to pick them all up.. He's 18 months

The ball pit was designed for 3~4 small toddlers. When fully inflated, an average adult will be able to "press" the side wall down to let the kids get in. It is that simple. 1000 pcs of the larger 3" crush-proof balls will be ideal for the ball pit. Please check Amazon listing: 1000 pcs Crush-Proof Phthalate Free non-PVC Plastic Ball Pit Balls in 5 Colors - 3.1" Air-Filled - Guaranteed Crush-Proof or Your Money Back (for Home Use Only) . However, if you are buying the smaller 2.5" balls, you would need about 2000 pcs instead and would cost you much more money. The ball pit was designed for 3~4 small toddlers.

I would say at least 4. It would depend if these were toddlers or 8 yr olds. I frquently had 4 in there ranging from age 2-5. If they are just sitting in there and not rpugh housing on the slide ypu cpuld prob fit 3 just in the small end and another handful in the big end. Its a good size.

The product easily holds the 200 balls I purchased to go with it and can probably hold many more, but keep in mind, that, with children playing inside, the balls will be flying out of the 2 side openings.
