The ArchiRocket Launcher by ArchiWhimsy is a playful and functional sprinkler designed for kids, though adults can enjoy it as well, especially engineering heads.
From Superinnovators 28/08/24
This innovative product uses a water jet to launch a colourful rocket that hovers and rotates in mid-air, spraying an umbrella of water all around it.
Once attached to your garden hose or water outlet, you can vary the height of the rocket by adjusting the flow rate.
Available in multiple colours, it provides warm weather fun in any outdoor space while also serving as a garden sprinkler.
It can also be used to entertain the kids in any wet room bathroom or shower.
The device is made from plastic and measures 14.8 x 29 x 14.8 cm, and assembly is straightforward, according to the company.
It consists of a base, hose attachment, 5m water pipe and rocket.
The ArchiRocket Launcher is priced at $54.99, and the price includes free worldwide shipping.
As well as facilitating an enjoyable summer activity, it could also help inspire children (and adults) to get interested in science, technology and engineering (again).
