The 15 Best Bath Toys for Making Bathtime So Much Easier

It'll be hard to get your little one out of the tub with a bath toy this fun. Its circulating pump system attaches to the bottom of the tub, drawing water up through the submarine into the toy's showerhead. Your kid can point the water into the funnel to generate a surprising chain reaction of water-filled effects.

If you have a few little kids who bathe together (hello, sibling life!) they'll get a kick out of taking turns spraying the water out of the toy at each other.

You'll definitely want to make sure you have a towel at the edge of your tub ready for wayward sprays.
