Picture the scene: you're chilling in the hot tub or watering the flowers with a garden hose, and your little ones are having the time of their lives tearing about on their best trike, bouncing on a trampoline or getting messy in a mud kitchen. Investing in the right outdoor play equipment will help you make the most of your garden all year round - which means you have more time to relax. The default app screen for video is fairly simple. You tell it what speed you want the slider to move and it tells you how long it will take to get from one end of the slider to the other. The fastest it will travel is 1cm per second. It has a 20cm travel distance, and it will take 20 seconds at 100% speed to go from one end to the other. You may, however, want it to take longer, so you can dial down the speed. Dropping it to 50% means it’ll take 40 seconds to go from one end to the other. 25% is 80 seconds, 10% is 200 seconds, and so on. Positive, Neutral and Negative status balls (e.g. great for PowerPoint traffic light status reports) Nikon D7000 plugged into the Smartta SliderMini with the Nikon cable that came with my Godox X1R flash trigger receiver. TP Toys are fab. Our climbing frame/slide is still going strong after years of use. They have all kinds of climbing frame/monkey bars/swing/slide combinations” (Brand recommended by Mumsnet user Watto1) Our verdictSome kind of acceleration and deceleration would be nice, too. Right now, when you tell the slider to start, it’s full speed from the first frame all the way until the last. Being able to have it speed up and then come to a slow gradual stop at the end of a slide, would be extremely useful for those close up detail shots. For my own needs, that usually means product shots, but I could also see it being useful for wedding filmmakers sliding into a ring shot or other details of the day. Shooting timelapse The only thing I need to remember is that if I switch from shooting timelapse to shooting video, I need to unplug the cable. Otherwise, even if I’ve already started the camera recording, it forces it to take a shot at the beginning of the slide and then another at the end, with no video in between. To use a slide safely, kids need to be capable of climbing, sitting and staying upright, which may be between 18 months and two years. Parents should be confident that their child has the appropriate amount of balance and must use their judgment for each individual, ensuring they are supervised by an adult while they descend. Always note the manufacturer’s guidance on a slide’s age suitability, as some slides have weight limits too. . How to choose the best kids’ slide

We had a Little Tikes 'cube' which was great, tough and sturdy and very well used” (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user gerbo) Easily add status indicators to PowerPoint. You can add them anywhere on your slide, but when you add status indicators to a PowerPoint table, they embed into the table and move with the cell as table row or column sizes are adjusted. How much can you spend? With slides costing from tens of pounds to hundreds, choose one to match your budget. Where will you put it? Consider whether you’ll be putting it indoors or outdoors and also how much room it will take up – the size of kids’ slides varies considerably, so get out the tape measure before you buy. But it will also charge while it’s in use. So, even if you do spot it getting low, you can always plug it into a USB battery or something like the Novoo AC Power Bank to top it up. And you can keep using it while that’s happening.

6. Best foldable garden slide for easy storage: Grow n Up Qwikfold Climb ‘n’ Slide

We had a Little Tikes slide cube thing from when my daughter was 18 months. 8 years later and it's still used to do forward rolls down into the paddling pool. So yes, it has had a lot of use.” (Recommended by Mumsnet user peanutbutterismydownfall) Our verdict

When your little one is fed up with straightforward sliding, you can even keep the joyful squeals coming by rolling toys down it, covering it with a blanket to make a den, or teaming it with a paddling pool in summer. Whether compact or curved, wavy or watery, there’s a garden slide that can provide hours of fun for years to come, whatever the weather. As video is the default screen that comes up when we load the app, we’ll start there. Shooting video Dimensions: H230 x W137 x L306cm | Material: FSC Certified wood | Age suitability: 3 years and over Reasons to buy: The unit I received came in a rather unassuming white box which upon opening presented me with a brief user manual. When I say brief, it’s one side of a sheet of paper. It’s brief because there’s really not much to learn. Underneath this manual is a pullout containing a number of small white boxes. Inside each box is a short cable. One is a Type A to Type C USB cable for charging and the others are for connecting the SliderMini to various cameras.How old is your child? Choose a slide suited to your child’s development and take heed of the age guidance on the box. Material: Many kids’ slides are made from plastic, which can be durable and last for years, but there are more eco-friendly alternatives out there too. Tiny climbers and mini explorers will be kept amused by this popular cubed activity gym from Little Tikes. As well as a small slide, it features a little hideaway and portholes for playing peek-a-boo and crawling through and can even be enjoyed indoors as well as outside. Slides needn’t be limited to the playground or local park. We’ve rounded up the 10 best garden slides for kids, with options to suit every age, budget and garden size. Because each slide has its ups and downs (see what we did there?) we’ve also included at-a-glance pros and cons for each. The battery built into the SliderMini is a 1500mAh lithium battery. It takes around 90 minutes to fully charge and the battery will last around 48 hours in normal use.

The app for the SliderMini is called Smartta Go, and it’s available for both Android and iOS. I’ve primarily been using it with my ASUS ZenFone 5, but I have also tested it with an iPhone SE. It’s a no-frills app with the basic set of features required to use the slider. When you fire it up, it connects straight to the slider over Bluetooth with no need to enter codes or numbers. It just works.

It offers an exciting and speedy curve but flattens off for a gentle landing. We love the addition of a hose attachment, which can completely transform it into a water slide on those hot summer days. One thing I haven’t mentioned so far is the load capacity. Smartta claims that the SliderMini can handle up to 15kg (33.33lbs). I haven’t had a need to put anything approaching this weight on the slider, but it had no problem dealing with the D5300, D7000 or D800 cameras I used with any lens, even with a fairly steep climb. Every slide was steady and smooth. What could be improved Harvey Ball Colors can be easily changed. By default the Harvey Balls will be added to your PowerPoint slide in your template default color, but you can customize to any color (and you can share your custom Harvey Ball color with colleagues using the Share Settings feature). Safety features: A toddler slide should be stable and have non-slip steps, with easy-grip handles. High sides are advisable for the smallest of kids. Smoby do the best indestructible, safe outdoor toys for toddlers. They are expensive but virtually unbreakable” (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Pascha) Our verdict
