Ginormous Unicorn Yard Sprinkler Should Spray Rainbows

Are you finished with winter? I know I am. Summer is on the way, and I can’t wait. Well, along with grilling hot dogs and burgers, here’s something else to look forward to when it warms up outside. Make your summer magical with this gigantic inflatable unicorn sprinkler. It shoots water from its horn, keeping you cool on those hot days.


The Ginormous Unicorn Yard Sprinkler, which is its official name, by the way, stands seven-feet tall. It’s a huge and light-weight mythical creature that you inflate and connect to your garden hose. Then you’re all set and water can spray from its magical horn. I mean, it’s not rainbow-colored water that turns the air around it into a prismatic opening of a dimensional portal, but still, this beast is pretty huge and magical. It has a wide-mouth cap air valve so you can quickly deflate it and put it away when winter comes again.

You can buy it at Target for only $50. That’s dirt cheap for a magical unicorn that sprays water from its horn. It cools you off and will even water your lawn in style. It’s gonna be a good summer.
