Make sure to get a size that will be ok for them if they are not an adult yet...I use 4" pvc pipes for mine, and they LOVE them.

Thanks for the reply. I have a 1.5" that's a foot long. I'll pick up a bigger one next weekend. A 4" sounds really large but I'll check it out.

4" are quite big, I just like them because they are for sure not to get stuck! You could probably go a bit smaller.
