Never?

When they are no longer interested? My kids are only 4 but we use ours nearly every day in the summer and the neighbors kids who are 7 and 9 love to come over and play with it too.

I will add that we play with it a lot of different ways and I think that helps us get more life out of it.

We have a baby slide that my kids are objectively too big for but when I put the slide end into the pool it becomes a water slide and is magically fun again.

My kids will bring all their cars outside and hold a car wash in the baby pool.

Roll up some old socks into rings and dump them in the pool to absorb water and have an eco-friendly “water balloon fight.”

My kids have spent hours trying to build the best newspaper boat/raft to float across the pool.

We do this - my tall 6 year old still loves it.

+1 I have fond memories of sitting in one with my best friends in grad school, while we studied and with mojitos in hand. At one point we had three of them, one for each of us. Sometimes we'd put sea salt or other bath beauty treatments in while we soaked. Good times.

Yes. If we had a backyard, I'd sit in a kiddie pool. I'm 43 and a half.
