Bath Toys

[~Hestia~]

My boys love their cups, crayons and stick on cars and roads for the bath. What are your kids' favourite bath toys?

Cups, empty ice cream tubs, measuring cups, Barbie dolls and bubbles! LOL

The few occasions I have bought "bath toys" (which are, as an aside, ridiculously expensive!) they are been popular for all of 35 seconds before being passed over for the tried and true amusements from The Tupperware Cupboard!

Oh, and very popular to play with the sponge shapes - I buy packs of super cheap Homebrand dish sponges, and cut them into shapes. They stick to the side of the bath, float and the girls love them.

All the kids toys went skanky, so I ended up just chucking a heap of balls from their ball pit in there. They love them.

Yeah all our squeezy ones have gone all gross, have gotten rid of them now. Cutting shapes out of sponges is an awesome idea!

All our squeezey ones went mouldy and yuck have been thru many sets of them!

We have lots of diff cups with diff holes in bottom as well as little fish and star fish.

Spock loves the cup, and the empty bubble bath bottle (Cause it floats and if you hold it under water and let go it shoots in the air like a rocket!) and the spray bottle! (but with that you have to remember to empty the water out and use fresh water otherwise it isn't nice to be sprayed with cold water)

Me!

Bubbles, splashing, and row row row your boat. Cups and bath books to a lesser degree.

My boys love it when I mix a little bit of food colouring into their bath wash and let them fingerpaint with it. I have also make proper bath paint by cooking up cornflour, water, bath wash and food colouring to a paint consistency.

We play around with taking in different things from the kitchen too. Funnels, sieves, cups etc are all good. Beach toys and garden toys are good too- plastic buckets, watering cans, sand molds of castles, animals etc. Toy plastic animals are great too. The best actual bath toys we have that have continued to be played with and I'd say were possibly actually worth the money are a stick on mirror and a couple of green toys boats. We have a tug boat and a submarine and the boys spend AGES using them to float around and pour with. I also like they aren't made from toxic plastic like a lot of the PVC bath toys.

Squeezy toys that squirt water, cups with holes in the bottom, foam letters that stick to the side of the tub
