trash bags in rolls - not pulled apart. Lay them out on the grass and put the water hose on one end. It is better on a slight hill so that the water runs down it. You can add a little soap, but it makes it REALLY slippery!

The safest way is to get some industrial-grade heavy duty polymer (plastic) sheeting and cut it to the length you desire. (The last one that I did was about 50 ft. long and went down a hill.) Then, ideally you would have a couple of garden hoses running on it, so that you can keep the thing slippery enough. Most importantly, don't try to coat it with oil or soap-VERY dangerous-you go way too fast. Have fun and be careful!

take that heavy plastic that you would use for covering your floors when painting, this works well, and my nephews and I have had some fun. Put the hose at the top of plastic near the side so you don't run into it. Place on a slight hill it's even better. Have fun.

find a slippery tarp, none bumpy area, and a hose. Maybe pin down sides of the tarp it'll wont move. soap will help make it slippery. or, even a sprinkler that constantly sprays water at the tarp

Get a slide. Pour water down it. Slide down the slide. Repeat.

Visqueen (sp?) - 5 gallons of cooking oil. Pour oil on Visqueen and slide to your hearts content

You could go buy one, or you can get a long plastic tarp and set up a hose to spray on it.
