Bath toys ??

Hi,
Im wondering if anyone can help me Im looking to buy some bath toys that are suitable from birth upwards - how ever the only things I can find are either rubber ducks (great but since when did they become so expensive) or stuff thats upwards in price of £10 for one toy :eek:. Does anyone know where I can find reasonable decent bath toys from either online or the high street please??

    Have you tried the early learning centre? They do some nice toys for under £10

    Also try Tesco, as I saw some today too

    Hope this helps
  • i'd recommend both wow and lamaze as being fantastic toy brands for babies from birth - both do bath toys and you should be able to find them on amazon

    Most pound shops will have basic boats and ducks (the cheaper ducks don't always float the right way up though).

    It is worth spending a bit more though if you can - my three loved the Tomy Do Re Mi dolphins and ELCs water wand and Captain Bathtime boat - all well worth the money.

    I bought a net of boats from M&S in the sale a couple of years ago for £2. They still stock them at £5.
    Four different sizes and colours in the net. Little daughter loves them.

    We have allsorts of bath toys over the past few years and have found that the simple toys get played with most. I have a DS & DD and both have played loads with a cheap plastic tea sets and beach buckets. I also find that they are easier to keep nice, bath toys can get grimey with the soap scum (eghhh)

    my daughter had loads of bath toys and she loves empty plastic bloomin bottles, cups and bubbles!! Very annoying!!
    Now just have a net bag stuck to the bath with empty shampoo bottles in, rubber ducks and a cup!
