玩水枪

亦可将pull替换为take。
I think they are in the top of your closet.

这里的top指柜子“最上面那层”，所以用in the top of，如果想表达“最上面”，用on the top of。

They have a splash pad
那里有一个戏水池，
that would be a place to play with water guns.
可以在那儿玩水枪。
玩水枪是play with water guns或者play with a water gun，而不是play water gun，因为水枪是一个玩具，而不是一个游戏。
