10 Toys and Games that Make Bath time Fun

Here are some of our favourite games and toys to help make bath time fun for toddlers and their grown-ups too!  And please remember: never leave young children unattended near water.

1. Play lots of water pouring games with empty yoghurt pots, plastic cups and containers such as old shampoo bottles. Sieves from the summer beach set also go down a treat. 2. Swimming goggles, beach toys and dive rings are not just for the pool! Allowing your toddler to wear goggles in the bath will encourage them to put their face under the water.  Simply Swim offer a huge range of accessories, you can also get 3% back for your kids when you shop through KidStart. 3. Use spoons, bowls and ladles to mix imaginary potions and soups with your toddler; shampoos and soaps make colourful ‘ingredients’. 4. Bath-friendly crayons can be lots of fun although they can stain grouting and be a bit of a hassle to clean. These bath water dyes by Tinti are a great option.

8. Boats are fabulous bath toys for all ages; great for teaching the physics of floating too! We love this gorgeous wooden boat from Not on the High Street.
