Bath Time Can Be Both Fun and Educational with BathBlocks (Review and Giveaway)

Sometimes the most educational toys are the simplest toys-- toys with lots of open-ended possibilities that encourage young minds to think, to create and to explore. The best of these toys provide progressive layers of challenge for children to discover as they grow. At their very best, these toys encourage exploration, reward discovery and empower our children.

BathBlocks bring classic block play into a fun, new, fascinating watery environment.  The bathtub is the perfect place to create waterslides, ball runs, floating towns and more.  The “sticky” viscosity of water creates a helpful cling between blocks, and the movement, buoyancy and flow of water add an engaging twist to classic block play.

 

Special Note:  Dipping BathBlocks in soap or shampoo suds increases their stick to tub walls and other blocks dramatically!

My daughter Savannah just loves the water.  This makes bath time so easy, as I don't have to work hard at getting her to get in the bath.  Getting out of the tub is another story. :-)  One of Savannah's favorite parts of bath time is playing with her bath tub toys.  The other day, I surprised her with the Coast Guard bath set from BathBlocks.  Prior to receiving this sample, I had never heard about BathBlocks.  I stumbled upon them a couple of weeks ago, when I was looking for fun products to add to my daughter's gift guide I have been sharing on my blog.  Within a few days of speaking with the folks at BathBlocks, a package arrived at my door, with this cool bath set, that both boys and girls will enjoy playing with.

Just look at how much fun Savannah had the other night in the tub, when I surprised her with the Coast Guard Building Set from BathBlocks:

I can't tell you how many times I have had to sneak and throw away some of Savannah's favorite bath toys, as they began to grow mildew, due to poor drainage.  Just the other day, I had to throw away a boat set, which I paid over $25 for, as the inside of the plastic was black -- full of mold and other bacterias growing from water settling in.  So, when I read about how BathBlocks have won Oppenheim Gold awards and are made from bacteria and mildew resistant EVA and contain no PVC or phthalates, I couldn't wait to try out their bath set with Savannah.  After her bath, I let each of the building set pieces dry on the counter, like I do with her other bath toys.  When I went back in the bathroom the next morning to clean up, the pieces were dry and free of mold and funny smells.  I was impressed.  Savannah has been playing with this building set every night during bath time, and each and every morning when I go to put the set away, I don't have to worry about sneaking and throwing it out due to mildew or bacteria growth.  

As for the educational and fun factor, BathBlocks ranks high up there.  Not only is Savannah having fun building, but she is also learning in the process.  BathBlocks empower children to create their vision as they experiment with geometry, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, balance, structure and cause-effect.

So, if you have a young child who loves to play in the tub, why not surprise them with this set or other BathBlocks toys?  And, for those who struggle to get their child to take a bath, this might make them want to get in the tub and play around, while learning and getting clean. :-)  BathBlocks are a win win for both parent and child.
