We came for the mini spray and it was cute! Overall it wasn’t the cleanest or best playground, but my kids are suckers for anything that sprays water. You do have to find the little red pad on the ground and put a bare foot (or hand) on it for the spray to work – need to touch it every few minutes. Not all the sprays worked, but again it was certainly enough for a fun little morning.
