The Intex Baby Mushroom Pool is built around one idea that matters most to parents of very young children: shade. A red spotted mushroom canopy sits on two yellow legs over the splash base, so a baby can sit and play while the roof keeps the harsh Pakistani sun off their head and shoulders.

Under the canopy is a small round pool with a soft inflatable floor, decorated with flowers and a little smiling mushroom character on the inside wall. The soft base is gentle for a baby who is still learning to sit steadily, and the low water level keeps splashing safe rather than deep.

The size is deliberately small: 40 x 35 inches, which is 1.02 m x 89 cm, or about 3.3 x 2.9 ft including the shade. The pool holds roughly 12 gallons, equal to 45 litres, at a 5 inch wall height, so it fills quickly with a jug or a short burst from the hose and drains just as easily.

It is made from 10-gauge (0.25 mm) vinyl, which is on the thicker side for a baby pool, and a repair patch is included for the occasional nick. The Intex item number for this model is 57114, useful if you want to match photos against the exact product.

This is a shaded baby pool for children roughly one to three years old, always used with an adult beside them. The Intex Baby Mushroom Pool price in Pakistan is Rs. 5,450, down from Rs. 6,500, and it is a popular pick for families who want sun protection built into the pool itself rather than relying on a separate umbrella.
