8 Ideas Baby Toy For the Bath

Some babies would spend their entire first year in the bath if they were allowed; others treat the bath as if it is a pot of boiling oil! Interesting and age-appropriate baby toys for the bath can make the difference between a happy, positive and relaxing time of day and a stressful and scream-filled one. Today we check out 8 awesome toys made just for bath time!
1. Bath books
For wee ones who love to wallow in a nice warm bath, like bath books are a great option for bath time. They are also a lot more relaxing than other splash- or action-oriented bath baby toys, which can sometimes wind kids up before bed.
2. Bath stacking cups
You can use these from birth, to pour water over your little one, and as they get older they can be used for their intended purpose of stacking! Most ordinary stackable toys aren't bath-suitable, as they aren't heavy enough.
3. Waterslides
Just the miniature-sized version... I'm not suggesting you take your baby to the waterslide park every time they need a wash! Miniature baby toy waterslides have the action, the noise and the colours to distract kids who dislike bathing.
4. Hoops and balls
These are more for older babies and toddlers, but hoops and balls can be a very entertaining bath time game! If your baby or toddler has older siblings to show them how to use it, this bath baby toy will be a great learning experience.
5. Squirters
Squirters have been around since your baby's grandparents' time - they're a simple and very fun bath toy that will most likely never go out of fashion. You'll have to keep an eye on toddlers that can wrangle a squirter by themselves to make sure that your bathwater stays within the boundaries of the tub, though!
6. Rubber duckies and floating toys
There's so much imaginative play waiting to be invented with rubber duckies, boats, sharks and other floating toys for the bath. Young babies won't play with them by themselves, but once they can sit up and do some grasping they're a great way for you to get involved with your baby's bath time play.
7. Mountable mirrors
It isn't always worth getting a separate mirror for your bath, but if you're buying a mirrored baby toy anyway look for one that is water-safe. Mirrors are one of the few baby toys for the bath that younger kids will get some value out of as well.

Toy Boxes Baby Shower Gifts

Style and Storage
Your choice of toy box as gift largely depends on the style preference and the storage requirements of the baby's parents. You can do research by asking them regarding the nursery's theme and colors, assuming that you have close relations with them. Otherwise, you can inquire from family members about the parents' style preferences. From there, you can look into the various styles of toy boxes - with or without bench-type features, plain and solid colors or decorated and ornate panels, for boys or girls or unisex, personalized or non-personalized, and with or without cushions.
As to storage capacity, you have to remember that babies accumulate toys as they grow. Thus, your gift of a small toy box is perfect for infants with a few stuffed toys but not so for toddlers with a smorgasbord of toys. Again, you can ask the parents regarding the space constraints they might have in their home. Barring that, you can always opt for a medium-size toy box to be on the safe side.
Safety and Security
As much as you should consider the safety of the toys you will be stuffing inside toy boxes as your baby shower gifts, you also have to ensure that these boxes are safe for children. You can look out for these safety features:
- The paint used should be lead-free. You can ask the store regarding the origins of their toy chests - if these are from European countries and the US, you have the assurance of lead-free paint due to the strict standards imposed on their products.
- The lid should have a slow-closing metal safety hinge to prevent little fingers from injury caused by slamming lids. Also, you should avoid buying toy boxes with locks since children use them as hiding places. Better yet, look for a toy box with ventilation holes and handle cutouts that allow the free flow of oxygen in the event that the box does close accidentally with a child in it.
- Look for rounded edges and cushioned pads in toy boxes for added safety. You have to remember that sharp edges and hard surfaces cause more injury to children than they do for adults.
The baby's parents will definitely appreciate the care and patience you put into selecting the perfect toy box that will suit their baby's needs. Just imagine their happiness as your own when you receive this kind of gift on your own baby shower!
Now that you have chosen the perfect toy box to give, the next step is to actually put toys in it. You need not pack it to overflowing. Just a few stuffed toys, baby picture books, and age-appropriate educational toys will do perfectly so long as these are safe to use, too.
Just be prepared that with fully-accessorized and fully-stuffed toy boxes as gifts, you might not receive heartfelt thanks until the baby is about a year old! Then again, it will be one of the best appreciations you will ever receive for a baby shower gift.

Cheap Toy Cars For Kids

If you are a girl, you would probably be engrossed in playing with your Barbie dolls. As a boy, I am sure one of our favourite toys is actually the car toy. I guess the thing about toy cars is that they have got wheels. So the fascination is not just restricted to toy cars but also all other toys with wheels in them.
The most popular toy vehicles I bet would be those like Hot Wheels and Micro Machines. Boys would love to crash cars or even race them. Sometimes the play sets would include race tracks or make use of the pull of gravity such that the toy cars would move swiftly down from a height. Then there are those launchers which either work via a spring or be operated by battery or electricity. They can charge up your car and cause it to be powered and move at great speed!
Then there are some simple play sets which include the normal stuff that vehicles would encounter in daily life, like expressways, petrol kiosks, parking lots and what not's. Such are the inventions of the toy makers. Not to forget the many interesting train sets that are also included under the category of toys with wheels! There are so many different train models to choose from, and how you lay the tracks also counts! All this contribute to endless fun for the kids.
Talking about car toys, one must also not forget the physical cars that can be used to transport babies or young kids! What I am trying to say here are those mini cars or vehicles that are actually big enough for a child to sit in. Some of these actually come powered while others the child would have to use his or her leg powers! These toys are fun and sometimes the shopping centre even has trolleys that look like a car toy for the children to sit in as the parent pushes the trolley and goes about doing her supermarket grocery shopping! Oh then we also should not forget toy vehicles that are remote controlled! Wonder who is the genius who invented this such that the toy car can actually move without our hands touching them and even better so when we can control them from a distance and tell the car where to go!

Top Toy For Girls

Stressing over this year's top toys for girls? Diamonds are a girl's best friend they say but since the really younger girls have no idea how beautiful or extremely valuable these expensive stones are, stick to the ones which they can enjoy, not to mention those which cost less than a hundred bucks at most. Some top toys for your darling princess range from the most traditional with spruced up designs or something completely new and fun!
Fashion Dolls
Fashion dolls have always been a huge hit for little girls. Ask anybody who grew up during the time Mattel made their first ever creation and they will tell you that, once in their lives, a Barbie graced their lives. Although there are already hundreds of designs which we have seen on department store toy stalls, the Barbie princess (usually blond and blue-eyed) with her graceful neck and long legs and in all her finery- elegant silk and gossamer gowns in pink or white, is still one of the classiest, most timeless toys a girl can ever receive.
Dollhouses
Dollhouses are a rage once more with some of the most picturesque miniature houses the world has ever seen. The Calico Critters Townhouse comes with the Calico family, porches and verandas, a real staircase and four rooms which you can re-decorate or resize to five rooms. The Calafant Doll House is extremely detailed in from the ridges of the wall to the shingles of the roof. It also comes in several kinds like an enchanting castle, an adventuring pirate ship and a charming little tree house. Of course, with this one, your children would have to assemble the house piece per little piece but that is the actual beauty of this toy.
Toy Pets
Pets are always fun to have and take care of. Unfortunately, it takes great responsibility and children as young as three cannot really feed or bathe the cutest of puppies or kitties. This is the reason why one great toy, 'Furreal Friends Lulu, My Cuddlin' Kitty' is one of those on top. It looks like a real cat with the white silky fur and glassy eyes and acts like a real cat that purrs, preens, and rolls over. Toys like these can be a stepping stone, so to say, for kids who would like to have pets soon or for some who just enjoy battery-operated animals. They can also have Littlest Pet Shop Cozy Care Adoption Center, which is not exactly a pet but includes different accessories to bathe, groom and take care of a pet. Since this one has several little pieces, toddlers or pre-school kids should not be left alone with the set or even bought one yet due to the risk of choking.

ATM Toy For Kids

The ATM machine toy has emerged as one of the most popular gift items for children under 12. It has also seen its popularity climb with children, who find it very enjoyable, and parents, who find it very educational. It has been a meteoric rise for this toy which in a very short amount of time has become a best seller. This article will take a look at how the ATM machine for kids works and explain its popularity.
How does the Toy ATM work?
The AMT machine for kids works in three separate ways. The first way that it works it to be a cool toy for kids to play around with. This is because it lights up and has different noise effects that children under the age of 8 tend to like. However, it also is popular as an education toy. With this toy a child can learn the basics of managing money, saving money and balancing their accounts. Finally, the kids ATM machine has a very practical value for children and that is that it serves as a safe place for children to keep their money.
One of the complaints of kids who have brothers and sisters is that they never feel like their money is safe. They feel that they always have to hide it in a new and interesting place in order to keep their prying siblings from going after it. The way that the ATM machine toy works is that it is like a really cool bank account. You can put money into it, both bills and coins, and you can only withdraw money when you have the ATM card with the proper PIN number.
And once your money is inside the toy, it is safe. If you do not have the ATM card and pin you will not be able to get it out. But, don't worry parents, in case your child forgets the PIN code or loses the ATM card there are still ways for adults to retrieve the money.
I think that the toy ATM machine has the potential to be one of the biggest new toys of the decade. This toy has already shown incredible popularity and toy retailers report that it is one of the best selling items. It seems certain that the ATM machine toy for children is going to go down as one of the hottest toys

We live in a day and age where technology has overruled the innocence that children once possessed. Even at the youngest ages, children are susceptible to television, computers, and all other forms of technology around them.

Coming in all shapes and sizes, children can build an entire universe around wooden cars and trains. The minute you give a child a wooden car, watch as their eyes light up and their excitement reaches new heights.
Toys like simple wooden building blocks and shapes can also bring joy to a young child's face. While the toy itself may look simple, it's what the child does with the toy that's unique. Children can learn how to build simple to complex structures while making use of shapes and details.
If you're looking to buy your child an exact wooden toy currently on the market, a suggestion would be the "Pyramid of Play." Although more expensive (around $200), it includes 4 walls with different games and activities to give your child endless possibilities.
