Kids love to play with toys in the bath, and we love the way they keep minis occupied while they have a much-needed soak. But when the splish-splashing is done, that sea of toys needs somewhere to live, which is why convenient bath toy storage is such a sanity saver.
Leaving a pile of toys in the bottom of a wet tub overnight is a fast-track to mouldy bath toys. Clever bath toy storage units give your squirt’s favourite playthings a designated spot to dry out so that they’re organised, clean and ready for tomorrow’s splash-a-thon.

3 Sprouts

Munchkin
Munchkin Quack Bath Caddy ($39.95)
This clever bath caddy stretches across the width of the tub to hold bath toys in place while babes soak up the suds. It’s fab for creating a safe barrier between bub and the bath spout, plus there’s even a handy soap dish with a hook for hanging face washers.

IKEA

Sure, it’s technically a kitchen bin, but as The Cottage Market beautifully demonstrates, this handy storage gem makes packing up bath toys a cinch. Hang it on a wall hook or lean it against the side of the tub. Too easy.
Fruit Basket
