Babies and toddlers either love bath time or hate it. Some children are born enjoying the water while others are born dreading it. Whether your child loves or hates taking baths, baby bath toys are always a good idea. If your child already loves bath time, then baby bath toys will make it even more fun for him. If your child hates bath time, bath toys can help make it a more relaxed and more enjoyable time for both you and your child.
Good baby bath toys can be both fun and educational. Many bath toys can help develop fine motor skills, teach your children colours and numbers, and of course, always add fun to bath time. Make sure you choose toys that are always child-safe, easy to clean, and non-toxic. Here are some of our favourite baby bath toys:
1)Munchkin Undersea Explorer Bath Toy
Munchkin is a well-known and well-loved brand that offers many different kinds of baby and kids, toys and accessories. A lot of the bath toys available in the market are made by Munchkin, and they’ve become an expert in this area. One of their toys is the Undersea Explorer Bath Toy.
This is a fun yellow submarine that is meant to be submerged underwater, just like a real submarine of course! Kids who love playing with toy cars and other vehicles will love dunking this toy into the bath over and over again and making it zoom around the bath. It also creates entertaining bubbles when submerged, teaching your child about cause and effect.
Unleash your child’s creativity during bath time with this baby bath toy. The TOMY Boon Pipes is a set of 5 multi-coloured and different-shaped pipes that your child can mix and match together to create different water paths. The pipes attach to the side of a baby bathtub or bathroom wall with suction cups so that the water flows and stays where it’s supposed to be, and not on the bathroom floor. Plus points for this toy being BPA, Phthalate, and PVC-free. The only downside to this toy is it might want to make your child stay in the tub the whole day to play!
Two activities that all kids enjoy doing are stacking and pouring. They love stacking cups, blocks, or whatever toy they have within reach. They also love to pour. With the Nuby Splish Splash Stacking Cups, they can continue the stacking and pouring fun while taking a bath.
These cups immediately attract kids with their bright colours and prints. These cups also have holes in the bottom to create a waterfall-like feature when you put water inside a cup. Lastly, your child can stack these cups because they’re different sizes. This is definitely a toy that will add a lot of fun to bath time.
This toy is specifically made for toddler fun. The Hoovy Fun Baby Bathtub Toy Shark includes a cute shark grabber toy and four fish. The shark has an ergonomically designed handle that makes it easy for small hands to press and open the shark’s mouth.
After making the four fish swim in the bathwater, your child can use the shark to try to catch them all. Prepare to spend a lot of time with your child during bath time because they’ll want to keep playing with this toy over and over again. Not only will your child exercise his fine motor skills when he opens and closes the shark’s mouth, but he can also learn more about sharks, fish, and other kinds of sea animals during bath time.
The Splash N’ Catch toy includes a light and easy to hold the fishing net and four cute sea creatures that your child can catch. All children will love holding the net and trying to catch the sea creatures that are swimming around the tub. The sea creatures together can interlink together and make a cute sea animal chain. One great feature that we love about this toy is that you can also bring it to the pool or beach and play with it there. You can make patterns in the sand or use the net to catch the sea creatures in the pool. Definitely a plus for this toy!
Baby bath toys are a great way to add lots of fun to bath time. For children who don’t enjoy taking a bath, the right bath toy might just convert them into a water baby. They might even start racing race you to the bathroom! For kids who already love bath time, a great baby bath toy will make it even more fun and can turn a boring old bath into a wonderful time to learn.
