Abstract

A water shower device for spraying water to entertain and amuse children has a device at its bottom end for receiving water from a garden hose and for anchoring a hollow tube in the vertical direction. The hollow tube contains one or more crinkle plastic strips exhibiting neon edge glow, and at its upper end has a nozzle which carries a pinwheel, the pinwheel also displaying neon edge glow. The nozzle is a one-piece structure having downwardly ad inwardly directed struts which meet at a central nose and define openings through which the water spurts so as to impinge upon and drive the pinwheel, the pinwheel in turn disbursing the water droplets over 360.degree..
