LOADS of families will be digging out their long forgotten about paddling pools from the shed this week.
Once you’ve dusted it off and checked there are no pesky holes and it’s free from any creepy crawlies, it’s time to inflate it.
It seems every year we all forget how long it takes to inflate paddling pools and how much effort the whole thing requires.
Luckily, this savvy mum revealed her clever trick that allows her to blow up her impatient son’s pool in just two minutes.
The mum, who goes by @capricesmum online, shared that she uses a normal hairdryer to blow up the paddling pool in her garden for her three-year-old.
In the clip she said: “Does anyone else use a hairdryer on the cool setting to inflate their pool?


“I’ve been doing this for years and it’s a complete game changer.
“On hot days my son is so impatient to get into the pool and this allows me to do it so quickly.
“this paddling pool took 90 seconds to inflate, please make sure there’s no water inside as that can be dangerous.”
The clever mum showed how quickly the large pool inflated and other parents were amazed by the hack.
One said: “This is so smart!”
A second wrote: “Omg, this woman has been unlocked from the matric, got to try this next!”
Others were annoyed that they hadn’t thought of the trick before, “I could’ve done mine so much quicker.”
