WATER DISASTER!
I bought a kids paddling pool online thinking it was a bargain buy to keep them cool…what turned up was a total fail
A MUM has left social media users in hysterics after forking out for a new paddling pool that proved to be too small even for her five-year-old.
Samantha Ward, from Manchester, splashed out £5 on the pool for her sun-loving children Jenson Ward, 11, and five-year-old Jonah Ward, to help them cool down during the hot weather.

Despite the packaging clearly stating the ''kid's paddling pool'' measured 56cm in diameter and 15cm high, the 37-year-old assumed it would be big enough for both of her sons.
Unfortunately, as she later came to discover, Samantha realised she should've checked the measurements.
After removing the plastic packaging and blowing up the summer essential, the mum was mortified by what she saw - the pool was so teeny, ever her youngest one was too big for it.
In stitches, Samantha took to TikTok to share the hilarious fail - and even her boy Jonah was not impressed.

''Misjudged that one,'' the parent joked in .
''Ive just been shopping not feelinh [feeling] great, promised the kids a poil why oh why did i not read the discription [description],'' Samantha blamed herself for the blunder.
Luckily, it seems that she has found a way to make most out of the disaster - the mum said she'd use it for storing goods.
