Christmas Baby Toys.. bath toys

Bath time is one of the pleasures in a small baby’s day where their senses come alive in a whole new way.

Once your child can sit up on her own (at around 7 to 9 months) pouring, splashing, squirting, creating showers and making things sink can be fascinating processes to experiment with. These bath toys can also help you interact with your child and could prove to be some of his most loved companions.
