Avenlur Wooden Water Table for Toddlers at $249: A sealed wooden water table sized for one or two toddlers, with two buckets and a center drain plug. Fits a patio, a deck or a small yard. It leads this list because, of the picks at this budget, it was chosen most specifically for kids: it carries the fewest other tags in our catalog.
