Say Goodbye To Moldy Bath Toys

If you’ve watched the videos where moms cut open their kid’s bath toys and find tons of mold inside their rubber ducks, we are cringing right along with you. Bath time should be all about getting your little ones clean while they play in the water. However, not every toy is meant to live in the bathtub, and even some toys labeled as bath toys shouldn't take a swim in your child’s bubble bath. We’ve rounded up bath toys that your kids will love to play with and you can feel confident won’t fill up with mold on your watch.

Skip Hop Stack and Pour

This five piece set of nesting buckets lets your kids fill, pour, and stack the buckets over and over during bathtime. Each bucket has a different sprinkle effect that will keep kids entertained. When bathtime is done, just dump out the water and let the buckets drip dry to prevent mold.

BUY IT: Target, $9.99

Green Toys Tugboat

Not only is this tugboat from Green Toys made from 100% recycled milk jugs, but it’s easy to keep dry and clean when bath time is over. When kids are done filling up the boat and pouring the water out, simply let it drip dry until it’s time to play again.

Ubbi Interchangeable Bath Toys

These mix and match critters are so much fun for bathtime. Kids can easily snap the tops and bottoms together to create new animals. During bathtime, they can fill the toys with water, and since the toys come apart, you can dry each piece in between baths to prevent mold.
