Bath toys for toddlers always make great gift ideas because bath time is a BIG DEAL for these little guys. It’s not just time to get clean, it’s also a lot of fun and the opportunity to play – and learn – in a totally different way.
Another great thing about toddler bath toys (aside from the fact that they’re typically inexpensive) is that they’re ALL non-technology based. No batteries, no bells, no whistles.
They’re totally wholesome toys!
Lots of bath toys for toddlers can also be used in other environments, which is a HUGE bonus. They can be used outside in a water table or even on the beach!

Bath Stickers
These bath stickers are a must-have toddler bath toy and something that will last for years and years.
The foam pieces stick to the wall, so that your toddler can build, arrange, or use their imagination however they want to create their own type of artwork.
The foam pieces also float and are even just fun to play around with even without the wall!
Bath Cups
These bath cups are one of the best bath toys for young toddlers…and honestly, they’re just one of the best all around toys for them because they can really be used anywhere.
The cups can nest into each other, be stacked on top of each other, they can hold water, and they can spill water…all pretty simple concepts, but your toddler will go crazy over them!
They are also great toys for the high chair, beach, water table – really anywhere.
Magic Bath Book
Books in general are a great gift idea for toddlers, so actual bath books are even better!
This particular bath book has a simple little story, but also changes color when it gets wet.
It’s a great educational toy for the tub that is still a lot of fun for them!
Bath Munchkins
These bath munchkins are another classic toddler bath toy that will get soooo much love in and out of the bath.
These little critters can float and squirt water, but they’re also the perfect size for little hands, so they will end up being carried all over the place.
These are also one of those toddler bath toys that you’ll discover can be used EVERYWHERE – stroller, high chair, diaper bag, playroom…these munchkins are fun no matter where they are!
Temperature Duck
This temperature reading duck is such a brilliant concept and would make such a great gift idea for a toddler!
The duck is both a toy and a thermometer…so you know exactly how hot the water is.
Just float the duck in the water like normal and it will display the temperature the whole time…it’s a huge relief and such a brilliant idea!
Bath Crayons
These bath crayons are an absolute must-have bath toy for toddlers and definitely something that they will love using.
The crayons work just like regular ones, only they’re intended for the bathroom wall…and they wash off really easily (which is a huge bonus).
Learning to color and draw different shapes is a big deal for toddlers, so this will make bath time extra exciting.
Bath Hoop
This bath hoop is such a fun bath toy for toddlers!
The hoop suctions to the side of the tub, so your little one can practice throwing the ball…or just dropping it right in!
This is a really fun classic bath toy that little toddlers get a big kick out of…and they’ll have a lot of fun learning to throw.
Bath Boats
These bath boats are another classic toddler bath toy that will get way more use than you’d ever imagine.
The floating, lining up, connecting, and pushing can just go on forever!
This is another one that may seem simple, but is actually perfectly brilliant.
Most importantly – they’ll love it!
Bath Dropz
These Bath Dropz are such a cool idea and something that your toddler will really get a kick out of.
Before (or during) each bath, your toddler can pick a little tab and drop it into the water…and the water will completely change to that color!
If they add a different one in, the water will change to whatever mixture that makes (so don’t go overboard…or the water will be brown!). 😉
This is a really fun addition to bath time and another exciting activity for your toddler to experience.
I hope these toddler bath toys bring as much joy to your home as they’ve brought to mine! They’re easy toddler favorites that work for just about any gift occasion. Good luck with your shopping!
