Phoenix Suns Rain Boots

Don't you hate it when those beautiful, sunny days at the beach turn into brooding skies and then a downpour? So does Teresa, but she's equipped to deal with a change in the weather. For the beach, Teresa has it all: a beach chair, sunglasses, and a mod purple beach ensemble. But when the rain comes, Teresa can slip on her rain jacket, boots, and capri pants and wait until it passes. To bring on the rain, fill the flower-shaped pump with water, attach it to the base of the plastic flowered umbrella, and slip it into Teresa's hand. Give the pump a squeeze and voilà--it's a miniature water fountain, which kids will love (but parents probably won't). This is the part of the experience that should be played outside, so the lawn--not the carpet--gets watered. --Diane Tuman
