You can put bleach in a small pool if you want to control algae and other unwanted life. You must be very careful, as bleach can cause problems in a pool, so always test the water after adding bleach.

∙ 11y agoYes, you can put bleach in kiddie pool. Most every municipal or commercial pool operators without exception use some form of chlorine to oxidize their pools. Chlorine maintained at proper levels are safe and non irritating to humans of all ages. If you are concerned about the health and safety of the "kiddies" buy a Taylor test kit, read the booklet. Water chemisty is not rocket science its relatively simple & inexpensive if you take the time to read and understand the information in the booklet. Many pool stores dont carry the Taylor kit because the booklet dose not make brand specific chemical recommendations for pool balancing. Their chemical suppliers would prefer the public be kept in the dark and dependant on the pool stores computer analysis and brand specific instructions to empty your wallet. If you love your kids and your money buy the kit read the booklet then teach what you have learned to your kiddie, then send your kids to college with the money you saved.

∙ 14y agoI assume you mean you want to just pour a little bleach in the pool water every day without testing it first just to keep the water pure I would not recommend that. Chlorine is actually poisonous in high doses, and it would be difficult to know if you have to much without proper testing as is done in large pools. It would be better to empty and refill the kiddie pool every couple of days.

There is a caveat though, not all bleach contain only Sodium hypochlorite, and it's probably not adviosable to use the stuff you normally use at home to disinfect as I may contain additive that could be difficult to remove from your pool.
