Slip 'N Slide

Slip 'N Slide is a children's toy invented by Robert Carrier and manufactured by Wham-O. It was first sold in 1961. The main form is a plastic sheet and a method of wetting it; when the surface is wet it becomes very slippery, thus allowing the user to slide along it. Some versions also include spray tubes on both sides and an inflatable swimming pool for the user to slide into at the end of the slide.
