A great water element for indoors our outdoors! This pumping system has many open ended options for the kids. Our package includes a large steel tub, a durable pump, pump mount, and several sections of tube and connectors. The children can build a system of tunnels and pump water through to see the result, or a simple setup can be put together by a teacher for a more controlled water experience.

Note: safety bars have been added to the top of the pump, as shown above

Guide your children through the discovery process. Avoid explaining the pump, simply set it up and get it working. As they begin to pump, ask questions like "How does moving the handle make water?" "Where does that water come from?" Let them discover the not-so-obvious relationship between moving the handle and flowing water. BE SURE to fully empty your pump or keep it inside over the winter so it does not freeze!! Water left inside will crack the pump case if it freezes. Also, like any hand pump, it must be occasionally primed to keep its suction. When tub is filled with water, simply pour water into the water outtake as you vigorously pump. See user guide for details.
