Apparatus and method for water sliding

Abstract

A recreational toy is provided for simulating a car wash assembly. The toy car wash assembly has a mat for water sliding, and includes one or more free standing members which are capable of being inflated. One member represents a scrubbing assembly, a second a side cleaner assembly (e.g., a paddle assembly), and a third functions as a rinse and wiping assembly. A bumper may be provided with the mat. A method for water sliding on a recreational toy is provided. A person slides on a water-supporting mat, through and out of a toy car wash assembly, and subsequently contacts a bumper assembly which stops the person from sliding further on the mat. Further provided is a collapsed toy-car wash assembly. The collapsed toy-car wash assembly comprises a mat and three collapsed free standing members, all of which are capable of being stored and transported in one or more boxes. A bumper may also be collapsed.
