Product Information

Bath time can be a special time for you and your baby. A bath can not only help to calm and relax your baby before bed, but it can be a great bonding experience too. The best baby bath toys will encourage babies to learn, experiment, and have fun from the earliest weeks, while the best bath toys for toddlers will continue the fun and learning for years to come.

Three flat-bottomed cones are designed to sit steadily on the sides of the bath, ready to add pretend sprinkles from the shaker that comes as part of the set. Familiar faces and characters are generally very helpful for a child who’s bath shy. If it gets them into the bath when you can’t, then who are we to argue? When should I start using bath toys?Kids can concoct their own pretend ice creams simply by dripping a few drops of bubble bath into the cornet at the top… adding water… and pulling the lever. They’ll love watching as the “ice cream” fluffs and bubbles up in the cone before their eyes! It’s magic!

Every bath time needs a really good boat and we love this ferry by Green Toys that’s sure to remind them of holidays to France or the Isle of Wight. Each pipe does something slightly different to keep their interest. If they’re popular, you can buy a couple of sets to expand the play and increase learning – they work particularly well with the Tomy Boon Cogs set.Educational benefits - What learning experience does the bath toy offer? Will it help with a new skill or experience appropriate to your child’s age? The benefits of educational bath toys can include everything from developing and encouraging imagination and creativity to motor skills, understanding cause and effect and communication skills. Also, make sure anything you give your child is safe to go into their mouth as the reality is, that that's the first place it will go. Look for lightweight objects that they will later be able to grab. Simple bubbles blown in the bathroom will catch their eye, and they might also like toys that light up underwater. This clever unit pops onto any bathroom wall or the sides of your tub with its suction pads and only needs a little bubble bath and water to operate.

This particular Happyland Cherry Lane Cottage set opens up to reveal two floors and a treehouse to explore, with characters, animals and accessories such as beds and chairs included. Kids will love the rabbit hidey-hole and the incorporated carry-along handle that allows them to take it with them as they move from room to room. Made from high-quality materials that provide excellent value for money, Orchard Toys are a popular choice amongst Mumsnet users who have toddlers and preschoolers, thanks to their infallible ability to make learning fun. Is it hard wearing? - 18-month-olds aren't always as gentle as they should be, so toys and play pieces need to be robust and be able to withstand some rough handling. Mine had special bath crayons they could draw on the side of the bath with.” (Type of toy suggested by Mumsnet user JustLikea) Our verdictWe had an ice cream maker (bubbles). It has cones and a handle you pull to make an ice cream.” (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Spaceman101) We have a mix of Ikea and Brio which fit together. Brio have interesting add ons like a station, car parking garage etc (highly recommend the Brio car parking garage it is my two sons most used toy)” (Recommended by Mumsnet user Sandytoes86) Our verdict Age suitability - Products will usually have a minimum age recommendation, but you should also look out for products that are safe to use and appropriate for their age, including the CE mark. Our favourite features? - Interactive SmartPoint locations across the garage help bring your child’s imagination to life By the time your baby can sit up, fill-and-pour toys (cups to you and me) are good for encouraging interaction.
