We’ve had an email from Amy, asking:
I have a large kiddie pool with a crack in the bottom that is not repairable. How can I recycle this?
She doesn’t say whether it’s an inflatable one (which are the most common type in the UK) or a more solid one - the “crack” suggests the latter - so feel free to make suggestions for either.
(We’ve covered smaller inflatables before and in a similar water-holding-thing-no-longer-holding-water, we covered fish tanks last week.)

A cracked kiddie pool can make a great sandbox!
Also a new litter of puppies(which I used for my chihuahuas).Just change newspaper several times a day,plus you can hose out for extreme messes.

How about a raised garden? Just make more holes in the bottom before filling with soil.

I used a hard plastic one that I dug out of someone’s trash for container gardening on our porch–it now has a growing family of strawberry plants taking it over!

depending on the size you can cut it into a single sheet and use as a dust cover for things in the garage or attic
