Bath toys
For a child who loves filling and emptying, pouring cups are a useful place to start. Boats and figures suit made-up stories, while wall-mounted activities give water somewhere to travel. When choosing bath toys, think about the play first, then the cleaning and storage.

How we chose these gifts
We looked for products with strong seller information, clear age suitability, play value, parent-friendly features and good gift appeal.
How to choose the right gift
Start with the kind of bath-time play you want to add, then decide how much drying, cleaning and keeping track of pieces you are happy to take on.
Decide whether the water itself should be the toy
Choose pouring, spraying, bubbling or pop-up toys when the child enjoys making things happen with water. Favour bath books, mirrors, dress-up pieces, crayons or themed figures when the bath is mainly a place for another familiar activity. That distinction matters more than simply choosing the set with the most features.
Let cleaning and drying rule out the awkward options
Bath toys are used wet, so care matters more here than in most toy categories. If you want the lowest-maintenance option, favour designs you can rinse, inspect and leave to dry easily. For enclosed or multi-part toys, check the maker’s cleaning and drying instructions before choosing.
Only choose lots of pieces when the pieces are the point
A larger set is worthwhile when arranging, matching, dressing up, racing or choosing between pieces is part of the activity. If the child is likely to repeat one simple action, a single strong toy can be enough. Do not choose the bigger set simply because it looks more generous.
Frequently asked questions
Can bath toys go in the dishwasher?
+
Only if the manufacturer’s care instructions allow it. A toy being suitable for bath water doesn’t mean it can tolerate a dishwasher’s heat or detergent.
What if there are already plenty of bath toys?
+
Look at what gets used. If there’s already a favourite pouring set, another set may add little. A different activity may be more useful than extra pieces, especially when storage is limited.
