Bathtime fun is a huge part of any kid’s life growing up; however it gets difficult to add variety to the bathtub scene when toys all seem so boring. Squirting toys are great and waterwheels are fun but after a while they get old and there is nothing to take their place…nothing until you come across the Munchkin Baby Bath Turtles! These sweet turtles are great not only for toddlers to play with in the tub but they’re also recommended for children as young as 1yr! The Munchkin Baby Bath Turtles come in a set of four turtles which are easy to grab for little hands. The turtles contain magnets so they can click together for stacking after playtime fun but they

also come apart for individual play during bathtime! Each turtle has a stimulating factor to it to keep little hands and imaginations busy. One turtle has a mirror on it’s back. one has a dual color spinning ball on it’s back, one has a circular patterned ball on it’s back and the fourth turtle has a ball filled with smaller balls on it’s back which makes a rattling noise when spun! This turtle set was the winner of the Creative Child Magazine 2007 Seal of Excellence Award!
You can find the Munchkin Baby Bath Turtles over at Amazon.com! You should be able to find similar if not identical bathtime fun toys at your local retail store; however, if you’re like me and like the ease of online ordering just take a look over at Amazon!

There are so many companies out there these days establishing new products for infants and often times it’s hard to distinguish which companies are the best to go to for your infants needs. I have found Lamaze to be one of the bigger yet more trusting companies to work with for new infant products. The Lamaze Spin and Explore Gym is one of my favorite Lamaze products because it fits in to the "playmat" genre of toys which are increasingly popular for infants; however, it’s not the typical "been there done that" playmat that’s on the market today. The Lamaze Spin and Explore Gym has lots of vibrant colors with squeeky and crinkly noises and textures to keep babies

little fingers busy as they play. By laying on the soft spinner in the center of the mat baby is encouraged to stretch and use upper body muscles to reach the bright colorful characters on the mat. The soft spinner rotates as baby leans so he/she can move on to the next colorful and stimulating toy on the mat. The Lamaze Spin and Explore Gym is recommended for newborns through 1yr olds and measures 28"L x 28"W.
You can find the Lamaze Spin and Explore Gym over at BackToBasicsToys.com. I have never seen these particular Gym’s in retail stores; although you can find a variety of other Lamaze toys in your local retail stores.

Walking toys are extremely important for encouraging toddlers to get on their own two feet and get moving! A great way to help encourage movement with walking toys is to get an interactive walking toy such as the Chomp and Clack Wooden Alligator Walker. The best feature on the Chomp and Clack Wooden Alligator Walker is not how absolutely adorable it is but the rubber wrapped wheels which help toddlers keep moving without falling down because there is no grip on the wheels! So many walking toys come without rubber grips on their tires causing falls and bitten lips! The Chomp and Clack Wooden Alligator Walker features three clacking

alligators that chomp down their teeth as the walker moves keeping toddlers laughing as they move. The walker also features three spinning bug beads and colorfully painted fish on each of the rubber wrapped wheels. This walker measures 15 1/2 " high and weighs 6lbs, it is recommended for children ages 1yr+.
You can find the Chomp and Clack Wooden Alligator Walker over at Back To Basics Toys.
