The frog pod helps at bathtime
Bathtime is one of Nolan's favourite times of day, but not mine. Even though I change into shorts and a tattered tank top, I still emerge at the end of the 15 minutes covered with water, soap, and (since we often feed Nolan in the bath - it saves me and my kitchen) various foodstuffs.Our routine is bath, story, and bed, and by the time I scoop Nolan out of the tub, change him, and put him to bed, I am too exhausted to pick up the remaining shrapnel in the tub, which includes but is not limited to:
1) Plastic toys
2) Soap
3) Baby cloth dispensers
4) Tupperware
5) Perhaps a little leaked poop. (not all the time, though, really)
So when I saw this little device, I thought, excellent.
The Frog Pod helps with children's bath time clean-up, with trainable scoop for collecting and rinsing toys and a wall-mounted base for storing bath products.
It attaches semi-permanently to virtually any bathtub wall with adhesive strips that can be removed without harming tile or wall surfaces. Plus, it's very cute! Who doesn't like a frog!
The Frog Pod and other Boon items can be found in various retail stores, search able here.

daisy said...We had something not as cute but similar... but it just wouldn't stay attached to the ceramic tile walls with the regular suction cups, and we didn't want to use their super adhesive on our tile.

Karen Miller said...I thought this would be the answer to all our bath toy organization needs. We've tried it on 2 types of tile shower walls and it didn't stay up no matter what we did. We tried the adhesive strips several times and following detailed instructions, suction cups, and even tried drilling but the grout lines were too small to get a screw in. The plus side is Boon is very willing to work with you and will refund your money if it won't stay up. What a cool product, I'm sad it didn't work.

Jennifer said...I totally recommend it, if only because it is so cute. We just had to have this when we last zipped down to the States for a little weekend shopping trip to Target. The 'scoop' is wonderful for picking the toys out of the tub when I want to have a shower! And since it is so unique, I had to buy one for my cousin as a baby gift.

Erin said...I, too, just *had* to have this (got it through MasterMind Toys in Toronto) and it does work well for keeping bath time less frantic attempting to find all the toys to go in the tub, etc. And it seems to stick fine on our bath/shower unit - but it is one of those one, seamless jobs so I can see how it may not stick to ceramic tile or the like. I am so glad our first born loves his bath times, although I could do without the tantrums when we attempt to END the bath. :)
