How to design this rain barrel overflow so I can place a watering can and also absorb overflow into the ground?

I set up this rain barrel right next to a slope where water pools at the bottom. I would like a flat place to fill my watering can but also to help slow the flow of water into the ground when it overflows. Any design ideas?
