Abstract

A sprinkler toy, advantageously in the shape of a fire hydrant, includes a connector for placing the toy in fluid communication with a garden hose. A first spraying nozzle is capable of communicating with the connector through a pivotally operated valve. The first nozzle includes a plurality of apertures for producing an upwardly directed, diffused liquid spray. A second nozzle, also capable of fluid communication with the connector through a pivotally operated valve, is connected to the remainder of the toy by a flexible hose.
